Pros

Co workers Training and development

Cons

2025 has probably been the worst year to be a site-team member. Not only has work-life balance diminished. Sequoia has decided to start raising rent for their employees. I have spoken with multiple colleagues and multiple different sites and this seems to be the equivalent of corporations checking under couch cusions for change. Why start to enforce annual rent reviews for employees who show up everyday and give their all when it wasn’t done for many years? This is what made Sequoia great, the discount + rent stability is what appealed to many emoyees looking for long term housing in a disgustingly expensive market. Why is no one in the corporate office speaking up for employees who are barely getting by?

Great S card program

Pros

The opportunity to recognize fellow employees. Just receiving an S-Card with a little positive feed back, adds a little happiness to my day. The recognition has a 24 hour after glow.

Cons

Sometimes the person you want to recognize is not listed on the app. Either the name is spelled differently on the app, or the person is on a temporarily leave and not eligible to receive s cards when out of the office, but is eligible to participate in the s card raffle.
