Pros

Spacious working environment Senior leadership team are smart, ambitious, great people...but being micromanaged from the top Coworkers are very nice Christmas event is prob the only nicest event

Cons

No clear direction or constant changes of direction. There is basically no trust from the owner that people can do good job, therefore the micromanagement. This includes the trying to micromanage senior leadership team as well - they are great and smart talents but not being trusted for whatever reason. The mindset and operation are very old schooled - believing that people should go beyond just because DDS gives you money (wages) and should be punished if not doing a good job, no recognition or incentive to allow people wanting to go extra miles. Everyone just shows up working mindlessly and afraid of speaking up. Turnover rate is insane, all the way up to senior level. Recently the senior leadership team is probably 70% turnover rate, and finance team is pretty much 100% turnover rate since Christmas last year. Not willing to spend any extra cent to motivate people or to offer the "care" aspect. You would feel so "blessed" just having one meal from them for some small events - it's like beggars can't be choosers kind of mindset, you better be content. Take advantage of new immigrants and offer below market salary.

Pros

Worked with some great people over the years.

Cons

Most of those great people left after just a few years. Inflexibility in remote working; they almost begrudingly implemented a hybrid policy because we were losing great people to companies that were more flexible in this regard (not to mention paid more.) Kept being told that "we do our best work in person" even though one of the offices had a grand total of 3 employees. Corporate leadership puts profits before people; there is no "work-life balance." It's all work, all the time. Company doesn't appreciate its employees; employees put their hearts and souls into their work, and burn themselves out, without getting anything in return. Company has a habit of over-promising and under-delivering, whether to its customers or its employees. Company always wanted to cut corners and do everything in the cheapest way possible, even if it meant compromising on quality.
