Pros

The pay is great and remote work.

Cons

The quality scores are ridiculous to obtain and hit the goal, especially if a customer is upset. The adherence is also ridiculous you can’t adjust a break time or lunch time if you get a call that makes you late to either.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. It’s great to hear that you value the autonomy in your role, the trust from managers, and the flexibility of remote work. It’s also encouraging to see benefits, culture, and pay recognized as positives — those are important parts of the overall experience. We also understand your point about the pace of change, especially early on. Starting a new role can already be an adjustment, and navigating changes at the same time can add complexity. While change is often part of growth and improvement, your perspective is a helpful reminder of the importance of clear communication and support during those transitions. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience.

Pros

There are many employees who care about the mission, values, each other, and members.

Cons

Within the Technology organization, there is growing concern regarding the consistency and transparency of hiring and promotion practices following the 2023 CTO transition. Over a relatively short period, the composition of senior leadership changed significantly, with a large percentage of new hires and promotions appearing to originate from overlapping professional networks, referral pipelines, or ethnic background. There is perception that advancement opportunities increasingly favored candidates connected to existing leadership circles, raising concerns about whether hiring standards and evaluation processes are being applied consistently across Tech. As these leadership changes cascaded through reporting structures, teams became increasingly homogeneous in background and prior affiliations. This contributed to employee concerns about reduced diversity, diminished internal mobility, and the potential for affinity bias in hiring and promotion decisions. The resulting leadership composition also became noticeably less diverse over time, which contributed to perceptions of affinity bias and employees outside the dominant leadership network can appear sidelined in promotions, influence, and career growth opportunities, contributing to a perception of favoritism and inconsistent standards. As leadership composition became noticeably less diverse, the corresponding teams become less diverse as well.
