Was once an incredible company - Principal Mathematica Employee Review

The company's leadership is extremely profit-driven while attempting to sell a mission they don't live up to. Those who bring in massive projects are doted on. For the rest, the executive team has shown time and time again that they do not care about the work environment or career growth for the vast majority of staff. HR has led employee surveys for years. Employees report unhappiness, and the executives ignore and repeat the surveys, bringing in outside consultants to suggest changes that don't happen. It is infuriating to work at a data company that ignores data on its own employees. There's a new policy that a recent hire noticed. The change was not announced to staff. The policy states that if you have less than 50% coverage, you can be asked to go part-time. Many senior people are leaving. Some have called it an exodus. At the same time, a staff member was just fired for sharing bonus details for the executives. While staff are being forced into part-time status, the CEO received a bonus of >$600k for 2023. Most folks who left believe the executives with 30 years at the company are planning for retirement and driving up stock prices for the ESOP without consideration for the staff, quality of billing, and needs of clients. Their mission, vision, and core values statement aren't worth the stuff they print them on. Best advice I can give? Contact the trove of people who recently left to understand their concerns. These concerns have only deepened over the years. If you are comfortable with them, then proceed. Otherwise, know that this was a great company whose CEO and ineffective board stayed too long.
