Pros

1. Nice and supportive colleagues to work with (I'm not talking about management) 2. More or less good systems 3. Good bonus

Cons

1. What's the point of having an aptitude and personality test when these terrible managers are getting the job. The company is very good at hiring people that look good on paper and does well in interviews but once they're in their position, it is a nightmare. 2. Teams are severely understaffed. I'm not surprised by the amount of employees leaving. Company takes forever to hire anyone since the tests that potential candidates have to take seems to be an unhelpful barrier. 3. Manager like to dump more work on an already overworked team without communicating priorities or what's on the to-do list. They've become yes-man and woman to the C-Suite 4. Management also likes to preach transparency and communication when they don't even practice transparent communication. Often times, I would find out essential information to do my job way too late so a lot of tasks have to be rushed. 5. Why does the company tout company values so much when their actions doesn't have anything to show for it? We are not "hashtag one team" - don't kid yourselves. Has the company ever heard of the saying that action speaks louder than words? Is feedback really a gift to the company when it falls on deaf ears?

Pros

At this point, I have nothing good to say about this company.

Cons

When interviewing, I was asked straight up if "I was ready to work overtime and on weekends." I was told this was an expectation rather than a potential good effort. When I joined, I was tested vigorously after already getting the job. The tests were confusing and the answers were not obvious. The documentation was unreadable. This was after an application test and four rounds of interviews. When I worked as hard as possible, asked a weekly check-in call to keep my questions from being a problem, and worked late, I was told "I was working too hard" and that my work was below standard. When I got married, management told me that needing to take an appointment for my wedding was inconveniencing the business. I was fired while celebrating a religious holiday. No reason given. I had to beg to get the bonus that I earned as part of my severance package. After I was let go, my manager left the team entirely. The CEO and management pretends that they are kind people who support their workers. Unfortunately 90% of the company is clouded by anger issues, mired in personal attacks, and struggling with feedback that is unclear and conflicting. I am unclear how this company has gotten so many awards for diversity. I only saw minorities let go during my time at the company. The few people who are actually good at their job are fighting constantly to keep up with the environment. I'm shocked they even have a product that works given the company's disorganization and culture.
