Pros

Lovely people, great location, good business model, smart leaders.

Cons

HR is completely divorced from what the business needs. It's like they're on their own island checking off their to-do lists, when employees and managers and leaders actually need support and empowerment. They have no strategy, no real sense of purpose and no direction. And yet...the company is yearning for a solid and relevant people function to help drive change and growth.

These are also informed by data we collect from our annual Employee Engagement Survey (EES), People Analytics KPIs, exit interviews, and third party sources. If you think something got lost in translation, our Chief People Officer Andrea Eldridge would love to learn more and hopes you’ll reach out. Or, if you prefer, contact your former HRBP or manager with specific concerns to share with Andrea.

Pros

This place is full of truly nice people. The sense of 'team' is real. Everyone is helpful, logical, and intelligent. It's very well-run, and leadership is transparent. Projects are well resourced and people actually care about each other. Compensation is great and very competitive.

Cons

Weekly a lot is going on and things move quickly. Steep learning curves. Not a ton of collaboration.
