Pros

There are some good people here. That’s all.

Cons

This place needs work to keep employees. We are not being treated as adults We are micromanaged to death. The majority of my department has lost respect for managers to directors . All they want are yes people. Why is a 4 day work week ONLY for a specific department. No one except favorites are advanced. Rarely do any of us get opportunities to do something new unless you’ve been here more than 3 years- I’m still waiting. The EXACT same people are recognized on all hand calls. One area only has couple of people so it’s like they are literally alternated every other call. Don’t even get started on how leadership calls out their friends for recognition. We are to sit in our seats and churn out work. God forbid I have an appointment I’m reminded that I have to make up my time in the office if it’s on one of my mandatory days. Do i seriously have to have this force fed to me every week. THERE IS NO FLEXIBILITY you can say it all you want doesn’t make it true.

Pros

You get a bi-weekly paycheck.

Cons

The culture has tanked under new leadership over the last couple of years. It’s cutthroat, senior management keeps swapping out experienced leaders for their own people, same values, same bottom line only mindset. No one actually knows what they’re doing because everyone’s expected to do everything and own the fallout when it doesn’t work. Decisions get micromanaged or made behind closed doors about your own team, with no input. There’s constant pressure to cut expenses, and the target seems to double every month, at this rate it feels like the end is inevitable. Layoffs happen a few times a year now, two years running, and leadership straight up tells you it’s the new norm, so get used to it. Everyone knows it, everyone talks about it, and everyone’s living in fear. On top of that, you’re expected to work 12 hour days and answer emails on weekends, then get told you’re still not doing enough. It’s demoralizing. This is an awful place to work, and with the job market this bad, people can’t leave even though everyone’s looking. Feels like a sinking ship, and they deserve it for how they treat people.
