Pros

Great to network with professionals. You’ll also gain experience here, but the job market is tough so it can be hard to leave and line something up.

Cons

- Overly complicated hiring steps/process that also change like the wind - Constantly changing directions and priorities - Micromanagement - Charlie still runs the show - 100 different metrics you’re measured on, with new ones added and old metric expectations increasing with added workload - understaffed, downsizing, and no intention of backfilling recruiters - teams you hire for are downsizing too - culture of burnout and overworking - VERY concrete in-office expectation of 42.5 hours (accounting for lunches that you aren’t working) - can’t step outside during the workday as you’ll have to badge out of the building and would affect the hour requirement above^ - raises and increases nonexistent and no intention on adjusting to market rates across the whole company. (C-suite keeps saying it’s coming and pushing it further back) - overall poor work culture. Many I’ve spoken to are even willing to take a pay cut to leave.
