      Wouldn't recommend jobs on the Comms/PA/Sustainability/Community/Government Relations team

      Pros

      Holiday shutdown, company's commitment to the environment.

      Cons

      In my opinion one of the public faces of the company is disrespectful and consistently bullies and belittles her team and creates an extremely toxic work environment. Public shaming and manipulation are the norm, which leads to a team that operates under the fear of retaliation. Other departments within the organization have a positive reputation, but this one is dysfunctional under current leadership. Very unfortunate because the team is strong.

      Pros

      Pay and benefits are great

      Cons

      Certain Management Chains "highly encouraged" many of us to write positive reviews after one of our all hands meetings where employees pointed out all the negative reviews. Many of the reviews are not legitimate as a result. Cons, continue to outsource jobs to foreigners and less and less focus put on the individual contributor. People are seen as numbers and not as family anymore. Very sad. The company has lost it's way from the family values. If you want to work in IT and grow, you won't. Very SLOW moving, projects rarely complete successfully. Not worth the money.

      Integrity is a fundamental principle at SCJ. The company would never ask anyone to say something he or she doesn’t believe is true, and bullying is not tolerated. We welcome sincere feedback here and review all comments.

      Poor culture, unsafe work environment

      Pros

      vacation, 401K match and maternity/paternity leave are great

      Cons

      Upper management doesn’t trust employees and employees feel unheard by upper management. Covid-19 has ruined the company culture. The company forced people without medical exemptions to go back to the office in November of 2020 only to be forced to send people home due to a stay at home order put in place by Illinois. Mental health was not considered a medical exemption. They then forced everyone back to the office in the early summer of 2021 and took away all exemptions. Masks are not enforced and widely not used regardless of the HR policy’s in place. Overall, I feel unsafe at work. Work from home is only allowed one day per week if you live 10+ miles from the office. This policy is leading managers to try and bend the rules to keep their team members. Turn over is at an all time high and it seems that many people are simply waiting for bonus to pay before leaving.
