Pros

There are no pros to working at E Source. Private Equity bought this place about 2 years ago and it's been hacking and whacking ever since.

Cons

Senior leaders spent years building up company values and culture only to completely abandon them when they sold out to Private Equity. Middle management is supremely interested in pleasing those above them rather than advocating and supporting their direct reports. Recent promotions based almost entirely on favoritism and there is very little opportunity for advancement. Pay is some of the lowest in the industry and benefits are below average. I encourage everyone to look elsewhere for their employment.

Pros

Smart and passionate team members, project work is interesting, work load is good compared to other firms (maybe differs depending on the team)

Cons

Leadership appears to only care about the bottom line rather than employee well being and satisfaction. Staff morale is incredibly low. Brilliant people from the various acquired orgs are leaving.
