Pros

Coworkers. I liked the company before the pandemic. Pandemic exposed who they truest are

Cons

I was hired before the pandemic. Most of my team quit/furloughed beginning of pandemic. Those furloughed never came back so work just piled on. During the pandemic, we had to take less pay. Even execs did but 25% less for them on a 400,000+ salary doesn’t make a difference. The bonus for last year was half of what we normally get, after tax. I got $400. It felt like they were saying “here’s something small, hope you’re happy and don’t leave us” the raise for this year was also a joke. Again it felt like “here’s something small, hope you’re happy” I’m well aware that the company isn’t doing so well. With that being said, execs were still getting millions in pay out. They saved themselves. That is not true leadership. If your people are suffering, you suffer with them. I was one of few still left from my team and work load just kept coming. Everything was a priority. I need extra hands and eyes just to do everything. I held on for a year before I left because it was not getting better. Everyone is having a hard time finding skilled workers. Maybe you shouldn’t have furloughed all those people. Here’s are things I didn’t appreciate. 1. Management promote their favorites not those who are deserving. There was a freeze on promotions during pandemic but people were still getting raises and promotions. The execs will say those people were already doing next level responsibilities. Not in my department. 3. Execs still getting millions in pay out when employees bonus were cut 4. Stop paying pto when leave the company. That is time we earned. Such a penny pincher company 5. Knowing employees are over worked due to under staffing and launched a mental health initiative while management does nothing for our mental health. The audacity is alarming 6. Sending a good company to work survey so company can be published in a news article to attract talents but employees are over worked and not appreciated. Are we just a joke to you?

Pros

Decent salaries, Good medical, Good PTO, the opportunity to change jobs in the company is good. I loved my co-workers, they're all great people. They really want to move their technology forward. It's a great place to try different tech

Cons

There is an attitude in the senior leadership that if you've been there more than 10 years, you're no good to the company. They love layoffs, and refilling positions with technically skilled offshore people who don't understand the industry. Which kills the morale of those who stick around. My last few years there I was tired of my hands being tied with staffing. Managers would get called into a meeting with a list of employees they had to layoff a couple of days later, and they had zero input on the decisions. It's hard to be a cheerleader for your team, when you're just as in shock. Most of the old timers are just waiting until it's their turn to be let go. They don't want to leave on their own, because they have a bunch of vacation and severance built up.

Pros

Good and smart people that want to do the right thing.

Cons

Lots of politics and abusive executives (CCO/ EVP). Do not approve of CEO or his Deputy Pres of STS. Very elitist club mentality
