Pros
Remote work. Outside of this the company has nothing going for it that makes it stand out among other organizations out there.
Cons
My time at this company was marked by a toxic, fear-based culture where trust and respect are sorely lacking. Leadership does not know how to lead effectively — many individuals in senior roles lack the proper experience or emotional intelligence for the positions they hold. Decisions are often made reactively, without strategy or accountability. Employees are overworked and constantly overwhelmed. Their plates are already full, yet more work continues to be dumped on them without additional support or resources. Leadership frequently makes empty promises about improving workloads but nothing ever changes. Burnout is rampant, morale is low, and turnover is high - both voluntary and involuntary. The company has lost sight of what truly matters — its people. Employees should be the number one priority, especially since they are the ones who directly support and take care of clients. Instead, staff are treated as expendable, used to meet unrealistic expectations while being paid average salaries compared to the amount of work they do. While there are a few dedicated individuals who genuinely care about the work and their peers, the culture as a whole makes it incredibly difficult for good people to stay or succeed the second they start recognizing the how things truly operate. Until leadership addresses the deep-rooted issues of fear, overwork, and lack of accountability, this will continue to be an unhealthy and unsustainable place to work. It’s interesting to see Parasol’s HR team jumping into the reviews with clear damage control. When you look closely at the feedback, you’ll see the same themes come up again and again. These concerns aren’t random — they form a consistent pattern. Don’t let the polished HR responses distract you from what current and former employees are actually saying. Take the reviews seriously before making a decision about joining this organization.
