Pros

Freeman has an amazing culture that has been built and sustained for decades. The people here are passionate, collaborative, and truly care about one another. Work-life balance is excellent, and the company has long been a place where employees can thrive both professionally and personally.

Cons

Over the past three years, IT has seen a revolving door of senior leaders. Each new CIO/CTO has pushed for big changes, and while those changes required tremendous effort from the team, the culture itself remained intact. Unfortunately, under the current CIO, things feel very different. Decisions and actions appear to be eroding the very fabric of Freeman’s culture. Fear has become the new normal in IT — whether you’re a leader or an individual contributor, job security feels uncertain. If the job market were stronger, I believe we’d see a significant exodus from the department.

Pros

Great work culture. Love the people I work with, they are funny and creative and empathetic. I'm personal friends with many of them. The work is repetitive but fast-paced, and sometimes I get a creative project here and there. The work can hit you hard sometimes where you can't come up for air, but most co-workers are willing to help each other out when they can.

Cons

The job is fine if you don't mind repetitive work and slow movement towards any fulfilling change. Their new Return to Office initiative is outdated and lacking empathy. It's hypocritical as there are people who work in other cities that aren't required to be in office, and yet those within the boundary aren't allowed to move and keep their job. It's a boys club when it comes to promotion and landing creative work, and very hard to get clear job roles and career paths. All I've heard during my tenure is "we are working on it." People get promoted because of who they know, or how loud they speak in a meeting, not because of their loyalty or talents. I've had so many managers during my time, all with different styles and motivations. None know how to navigate the corporate bureacracy, and the changing rules and "re-orgs."

Pros

Freeman cares about their people. From benefits to employee appreciation days, they do represent a great company. The family is still involved in the business and their care is shown in all Freeman does.

Cons

Limited opportunity for movement. Although a great place to work, I did not see an opportunity to grow much.
