Athene reviews

no work life balance. senior management gives lots of lip service to balance, but middle management still expects you to "do whatever it takes" to get the job done, even at the expense of your own wellbeing. Athene holds lots of wellness events. I have missed most of them due to always having too much work to do and unreasonable deadlines to complete it by. it's very hard to take advantage of the FTO policy, on account of there always being too much work to do and not enough people to do it, and having to jump through ridiculous levels of approval. what's the point of FTO when it's always too busy to get time off? theres too much micromanagement, which gets in the way of actually being able to do the job. the entire team is demoralized, suggestions and feedback falls on deaf ears. management is more interested is looking good to senior management than helping us get the work done there is way too much red tape, takes forever to get anything done
