This company literally can't do anything right. HR+Finance FAIL

Pros

The "pro" here, if one can be found, is that 500 fewer people owe their livelihood to a clueless employer.

Cons

How does a company spend months conscientiously preparing to lay off 500 people, and yet still fail correctly administer the final compensation for those hundreds of people? I mean, shouldn't somebody lose their job over this? OH WAIT. This gross operational incompetence is symbolic problems with Amplify, which has never been able to *deliver* anything. Not working tablets, not high-performing assessment software, not the textbooks the customer ordered, not the training customers were promised.

Pros

Good pay and decent benefits

Cons

Everything else. They are negligent in workforce planning and forecasting. They market themselves as an inclusive, diverse organization and this is far from the truth. Their diverse hires are primarily low on the career ladder. Almost all leaders are white, privileged individuals. Be prepared to hear much about Christianity and Jesus in regular everyday meetings. Training is nonexistent. Upskilling is completely on the employee. Documentation of processes and communication of expectations is also very very poor.
