Pros
They give me a paycheck. Number of PTO days is okay. Matching 401k contributions.
Cons
When Brookfield bought us out from the Moody family, many of us hoped for the best. We were told that they acquired us because we were a solid and profitable company, and there were no plans to change what wasn't broken. Sadly, it didn't play out this way. We were told that flexibility was part of our culture, and that we had to RTO 5 days per month. We hired new employees based on that assurance. Then we went to 50% hybrid. HR put out videos to let us know this wasn't a move towards a full time return, because we were agile and cared about employees. They know that wasn't in our best interest. Then they quietly deleted these messages and required full time in office. It's been downhill ever since. Employees are not being replaced when they leave and now there are layoffs as well. We're taking solid employees with decades of service being eliminated. No reason was provided in why they were chosen. They expect everyone to work 60 to 70 hours a week to make up the difference in lost staffing. There is no work-life balance. The message is pretty clear that we should be glad we're the ones that still have jobs, keep our mouths shut and do whatever is demanded. We have a recent employee appreciation day. HR hyped up the exciting surprise we had coming. It was snow cones. Snow cones don't make up for all of the time we spend away from our families trying to make the company top in the industry. We didn't get excited about a new company logo either. We care and being able to afford groceries. Maybe give us bonuses instead. Rumor has the may be no raises next year. HR touted the great health benefits coming in 2024. However, we'll have to pay $6000 out of pocket per person for the health plan to kick in. We had a recent all employee meeting and leadership didn't even address the layoffs. Most of us are looking for other jobs and are saddened by what the company has become. We feel beaten and abused. They should hand out antidepressants and Xanax in the break rooms. For being a successful company worth billions, Brookfield sure seems to default on a lot of their loans. Just Google it. I wouldn't recommend anyone climb aboard this sinking ship.
