Fair pay overshadowed by toxic junior management culture

Pros

Fair pay and benefits package

Cons

Toxic and junior league fake VPs who overpromise and put immense strain on their teams. Absolute junior tenured VPs bully their staff and despite many resignations the "leaders" continue to berate and bully others while getting praise and recognition from their executive leadership team.

Pros

Benefits and coworkers were great, that's about it

Cons

After forcing people to make a decision to relocate to Chicago or lose their job, they also lied to an entire department about being able to work "remote" to only tell them that they their jobs would be outsourced to a different country and they would actively train their replacements over the course of a year. This was by far the hardest, worst thing I've ever done career wise. I've only heard horrible things since I've left and that it has continued to get worse. Senior management does not care about the people in the trenches doing the actual work, they only care about their paycheck and the bottom line. So many lives have been destroyed career wise with the decisions made by this company.

Toxic Environment

Pros

Benefits are decent and somewhat cheap.

Cons

Very chaotic, toxic environment currently with the very poorly planned "One HQ" move to Deerfield. Many departments are short staffed and onboarding is non-existent. Some employees seem bored while most are so underwater trying to keep up with the constantly growing number of priorities that they can't leave their desks. Executive leadership is short-sighted and ineffective. Pressure and expectations are at an all time high while vision from leadership and ability to execute are severely lacking. Some executives use bully tactics to try and pressure employees to perform to their unrealistic expectations.
