Great company, but refuses to adapt

Pros

Decent work-life balance depending on your salary grade level Prioritize internal employees for promotions over hiring external candidates Opportunity for advancement if you want it and do well in your role Tuition reimbursement benefits Great colleagues

Cons

Lower than market average pay for job roles. Slow to respond to COVID and provided very little support with WFH, but required managers to inspect employees work from home set-ups via teams. Response to COVID was perceived that there is little care about employees with strong encouragement to be at the office while not actually required. Unofficially required manager level and up to be at the office as of July 2020. As of August 2021 requiring employees to be back to work 100% with an option for an exception to be signed off by Senior Management only for employees with no direct reports for 1 day a week at home, but can only be a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, with many other contingencies. Lean company, which has proven successful, but also limits the ability to invest in systematic and forward-looking improvements as well as proportionate head-count to company demands and growth.
