Pros

Work from home and good pay

Cons

Excessive micromanagement, with even routine leave approvals requiring senior leadership involvement. Lack of transparency around workforce changes and restructuring decisions. Communication gaps between senior leadership and employees, creating uncertainty and speculation. Concerns about employee retention due to frequent organizational changes. Hiring practices perceived as favoring external (Sterling) or former employees over existing talent development.

Remote work is great but leadership issues are a big problem

Business Outlook

Pros

Remote work forward. At the individual contributor and manager level, there are a lot of great people.

Cons

There are common themes amongst recent reviews: The gutting of experienced leaders for former Sterling employees, a lack of care for employee expertise and knowledge, an overreliance on appeasing the CEO rather than doing what is best for the company or customer. The cutting of DEI&B and intern programs. I find all of these to be accurate and have never felt more like a replaceable cog.
