Pros

Many folks at the organization truly believe in the mission.

Cons

The current CEO came to an organization with a lot of sweet-talk and hyped up jargon that made him sound like a great leader. Quickly, leadership were replaced with FOSs (the term other leadership used as code for “Friends of Sachin”, the CEO). He has clearly made his way by being too boisterous and narcissistic to stop. Most people seem to be afraid to tell him that he’s the emperor with no clothes, and anybody who does ends up pushed out of projects, bullied into submission, or pushed into ridiculous “new” job titles that are warnings to leave until they’re ultimately laid off. In another review, they put a response saying how talented and skilled leadership are, if so, why the constant shuffling and censorship and bullying?

Pros

1. Benefits - pto, holidays, $14/mo for individual insurance 2. Coworkers appear that they always are willing to help 3. The mission and non-profit side

Cons

1. They will string you along if you are a temp and keep saying they will hire you, then fire you. Temps are treated as easily resplaceable and you will be fired with no notice 2. Tons of layoffs of whole or partial departments being outsourced to overseas 3. Loved scan before current CEO. Sorry, but he is asking way too much for the pay 4. Questions to direct manager and other departments have to be submitted through a tracker system 5. Tracking metric system is unrealistic with my job, yet still forced upon us. They reworked the performance goals and it’s impossible to get overachieves now = less of a raise. The raise is hardly 3% most years 6. They are now transitioning back to office at least 3 days a week, making it mandatory if you live within 50 miles, yet hire many out of state workers 7. Hard to get clear guidance - takes a while for managers to respond; outdated job aids 8. Constant turn over with unclear guidance on who to direct questions to. Managers in my department don’t last over two years. 9. Pushing new technology before it’s ready and having AI being forced upon us when our department has no use for it yet.
