Pros

There are not any pros there.

Cons

Losing clients left and right, doesn't pay vendor bills, high turnover rate from employees with NO BACKFILL to do the work, management is tone deaf to how employees below are feeling, not transparent about internal company status/not transparent to clients, low pay/no cost of living raises

It’s disappointing to hear that you did not enjoy your experience at Ansira, so I want to address some of your concerns. We are currently undergoing a transformation to put in place additional processes that will provide our team more efficiencies, and with these changes comes a period of time when workloads may be heavier, but we are committed to improving that in the long run. Since I joined the team in February we have made a point to be more transparent and communicate with the team regularly, be it through my Friday highlight emails or our all hands meetings, to keep the team informed of company news, and we will continue to keep the lines of communication open. I wish you well in your new endeavors. Thanks, Jay

Pros

Great benefits and unlimited/flexible PTO

Cons

Workload expectations were unsustainable. To meet the basic requirements of my role, I regularly worked 50–70 hours per week. While the company offered flexible PTO, there was little meaningful coverage when employees were out, often resulting in even more work upon return. Frequent layoffs and ongoing staff reductions meant existing clients were repeatedly reassigned from departing employees to the remaining team members, further increasing workloads and making it harder to provide the level of service clients deserved. As responsibilities grew, client escalations became increasingly common, and support from leadership during those situations was inconsistent. The moment that best captured the disconnect between leadership and employee reality was a company training on having a "growth mindset" that included the message, "It's not bandwidth. It's mindset." For employees already struggling with excessive workloads and burnout, this felt dismissive of legitimate capacity concerns. The culture ultimately led to significant burnout, high stress, and declining morale. The company has talented employees and clients, but leadership would benefit from addressing workload management, staffing levels, accountability, and employee well-being before focusing on mindset and productivity initiatives.
