Pros

- Helpful and supportive colleagues - Easy to work with management (at least within my dept) - Support available for all types of individuals - Offers free training and learning courses for your respective field

Cons

- Promotion approved by leadership, but HR denied the pay increase - HR policies seem to override management’s input and support - Unclear career progression despite strong performance - Significant additional responsibilities without fair compensation - Sexism and frequent talk of politics (US Politics) in the office (we have to go in 4 days soon so I'm not looking forward to being around more of that) - Unclear direction from different teams (some employees don't seem to know how to do their jobs - creates confusion and slows down everyone else. I shouldn't have to tell someone from a different team how to do his/her job, their manager should)

Pros

A lot of good perks, friendly staff, great supervisors

Cons

Left my old job to come here because of the hybrid schedule having little kids and not being able to afford child care made life work balance much easier now they are trying to change that and stream like to full time in office which is earth shattering for a lot of employees. Other departments work home 5 days a week and continue to reap that benefit.

We understand that shifts in workplace expectations can be challenging, and we’re committed to supporting our employees through this transition. Our move to a 4:1 in-office schedule reflects our belief in the power of in-person collaboration to drive innovation, connection, and long-term success. While the policy will remain in place, we’re actively working on ways to make the in-office experience as productive and positive as possible, and we welcome ongoing dialogue to help us do that well. As a newer team member, your fresh perspective is particularly valuable as we shape our workplace culture.
