Must be part of inner circle

Pros

It is a job for pay

Cons

Unless you are part of the inner circle, don’t expect to be recognized or promoted. The executives and much of middle management/salary think they are better than all employees and won’t even shake your hand if they feel you are not worthy. Even most of the admins are stuck up.

IPO at all costs - soul-crushing killer of high performers

Pros

- The people working at the business unit levels are great even if a bit trauma bonded - Corporate has a couple of gems in the C-Suite even if surrounded by blind loyalists holding on to not get cut before the IPO payout

Cons

- Below industry pay at all levels for the size of business - Silent layoffs and restructures at least 1-2 times per year - People are stressed, and employee engagement scores are abysmal, even in groups with good leaders, because no one sees a career path or rewards and hasn't for years.

Pros

A lot of good people

Cons

Old company politics play in a role in work, mistreatment of employees and no repercussions, a lack of basic respect and professionalism from certain managers has created a challenging environment. Always downsizing/rearranging of departments and changing roles/jobs. Files are a mess.
