GAF reviews

I liked my time there

Compensation for in-office employees is increasingly inadequate as the expectation for more in-office presence grows. The 3% annual increase scarcely covers the rising cost of living, let alone the additional expenses related to increased commuting and childcare costs. It feels like the company has changed so many of the reasons I wanted to join this company to begin with. It was sold as a company that valued their employees and appreciated work life balance. The job was explained as a 3:2 hybrid work schedule with flexibility as needed. That has been changed so much in the last couple of years and now the company is moving to a 4:1 work scheduled starting in September. There is a complete disregard for the working parents That need/want the extra two hours a day spent driving to and from the office to be with their family instead. We were told there would be flexibility with wfh due to the massive traffic being caused by sinkholes on Route 80. That lasted less than 2 weeks and now we are being told we must be back in office 3 days a week regardless of how long the commute will now be. Yes the company offered the idea of a shuttle from public transportation but many of us live in areas where catching a train is not a better option than sitting in traffic.
