Pros

Recent mergers and acquisition brought with it, new knowledgeable leadership into the upper echelons, which resulted in new training programs and resources being introduced. Before the most recent M&A, nobody cared about (1)training employees or (2)diversity and inclusion or (3)listening to their employees.

Cons

# Unless you work at the headquarters or you know how to brown nose your way to the top, you are guaranteed to be stuck at the same role. # HR process is a joke. The recruiters take their own time to process applications. Since the C-suite is not in favor of "work from home", your job application is ignored if you cannot relocation to the job location. Also, be prepared to negotiate your salary, the recruiters(hiring managers!! ) are known for lowballing your salary offer. # Hypocrisy run rampant . C-suite tells you one thing at the townhalls, but does something else later. Leadership does not always have an open door policy, again, unless, you work for one of the newly acquired units. Turnover is high. # Organic innovation is stagnant, the only way for them to grow is mergers or acquisitions.

Pros

The Pros to this company is... it’s a paycheck and that’s all I got! It’s a paycheck

Cons

They take advantage of their employees, not paying the employees who have been around longer more money. Don’t even ask for a pay bump because the company will make every excuse why they will not ! And during the recruitment process they will offer you the least amount possible and say you are on “ a competitive salary “. They don’t care if your about to be homeless just remember that. And during the holidays, they do not give out any bonuses but they definitely give you a cheap company gift. Not even a gift card but a REAL REAL CHEAP charger lol. Not even Walmart will sell. Forget even trying to get promoted or even transfer to a different department it’s like jumping through hoops. They do not really evaluate supervisors so prepare yourself, you will be taking the blame for a lot for them. Just... look at another job. Unless do you want a job that pretends to care ( fake).
