Pros

It’s still a job for those of us lucky enough to have one.

Cons

I can’t sit by anymore. This company is full of the most self inflated, self promoting, tone deaf people in the entire universe. Shortly after laying off employees with high tenure who drove the culture, they promote senior executives. This alone would be enough to leave a sour taste in the mouths of the rest of us, but we didn’t stop there. Not only did they do it less than a week after the layoffs, they are promoting it all over social channels. Touting these executives who now have EVP titles. Soon this company will have more EVPs than Employees. The culture is rotten. The pressure is maddening. The two faced lies are adding up.
