Pros
I’ll give two stars because we have decent vacation time, they haven’t cut the 401(k) match and my paycheck has never bounced.
Cons
I’ve been grappling with whether it was time to leave Clearlink for some time now. There’s zero growth potential, poor communication and very little vision. Many senior leaders seem to lack a basic understanding of the digital media landscape. There’s no willingness to make the investments that are needed to be competitive in the long term. The benefits have also become terrible. Many people have had routine claims for healthcare denied or can no longer afford their prescriptions. But it became clear that the time to leave is now on Monday, 04/03, when employees were told they would need to return to the office by 04/17 if we live within 50 miles of an office. This comes after years of being told we’re a culture that embraces remote work. There’s no reason for this mandate, but we were told in an email that “we will all benefit from the relationships, mentoring, and elevated mental health that only in-person can work can provide.” Many people will be left scrambling to find child care and will now be commuting 2 hours a day. So please don’t pretend you give a damn about anyone’s mental health. A lot of employees moved further out because they were promised remote work would continue. Senior managers were blindsided by this announcement. Yet they were then forced to have meetings with their teams despite being shell shocked as well.
