Pros
The team and people I work wirh are great. Great benefits.
Cons
The company upper leadership is out of touch with reality of hourly paid workers and is moving the company backwards. Good talent is leaving. Increased dependency on outside consultants who keep making bad tech worse. The cobstant repetition of "Inclusivity" is used by the company to mask the downshift in company moral and culture. The repetitive use and mention of engagement surveys. Its easy to put out an email that states the financial responsibility has always been personal when the person behind the decisions paycheck is multiple times more than the hourly worker who has had a 15-25% cost of living inflation post Covid. Annual merit raises are rarely more than 1-3% at most. The return to office mandatory is costing caregivers 1/2 to entire weeks pay. To do what can be done at home. They keep repetitively putting out the same statistics that productivity is down, while other statistics provided by companies show the opposite statistics. Some companies are forward thinking, use technology to monitor productivity/metrics and provide the tools needed to be a great employee. For backend jobs, non-call center, non sales based, the return to office is a ridiculous counter productive move as these jobs do not entail constant interaction, are data entry centric or involve hours of involved computer work. The open office environment is one of the worst setup to do this job productively. The company culture has lost its shine since Susan left. The new message put in polite corporate terms are shut up, do your job, your paycheck is your reward, we do not care about the financial burden of your personal life and how this will hurt you financially. This used to be a company I was proud to work for and now its just a paycheck. Team moral is all time low, people are job searching or just performing at their function. It wasn't the pay that kept tenured people here but something else. Whatever that was is gone. Now, the slap in the face underlining message is return to office, we will be watching, shutup and do your job, your are a cog in a wheel and easily replaceable.
