Pros

My co-workers. Great people that are hard working and supportive

Cons

- A lot of FLUFF - company all hands meetings tell you what you want to hear but noting is acted upon. When management is put on the spot during live Q&A's they avoid the question like its the plague. - Continued budget cut backs (I get it, economy changes) but this has been going on since 2021 after the Covid hiring boom but other companies bounced back. - Little to no growth, promotion or salary increase even after doing all of the "Accelerate" (career growth) courses and goal settings with managers

Pros

The team members who are in the weeds

Cons

* Low pay and lack of career progression. Last year I had my first raise in years but it was a VERY small increase that hasn't improved my quality of life unfortunately. This year they pushed the merit increase by half a year. There isn't a doubt among all of colleagues that this is an intentional move to get more folks to quit / save money. * High employee turnover. * Multiple waves of layoffs and departures since 2024. Lack of communication and planning around layoffs leads to us having to figure out solutions on the fly and it honestly does not seem like that leadership cares about how these layoffs are affecting the CURRENT business. * Rotating door of Execs who have no idea what's going on in the ground. We're just treated like numbers on a spreadsheet.
