Cons

Constant restructuring Yearly layoffs Pay is well below industry standard - and they are aware but barely do anything to make it right Abysmal training

Pros

There are some amazing scientist, and brilliant minds in general that work in the technical capacities at Coke. There is potential to work interactively across so many platforms, unlike anywhere else.

Cons

Extremely tough to be promoted within the organization. Salary is moderate at best. Work hours are/ or have potential to take over your life if you let them. In general this company has a high capacity to take over your life, and the compensation is lacking in comparison to this potential.

Pros

Co-workers (when they're not being bullied or cornered by management)

Cons

EVERYTHING! We used to come to work with a sense of pride however, since the transition and newly appointed management the company has been going nowhere but down hill. Management works by intimidating their teams and are not able to deliver a clear message. They have unrealistic expectations, and contradict everything they say. They're more concerned with micromanaging their teams and focusing on unproductive tasks that produce 0 results for the bottom line. The only thing that has been helping revenue is cutting staff and over working the remaining team with job duties outside of their hired roles. They are only seeking "yes men" that will do anything they're told without question. Currently, they are working to push seasoned staff out so that they are able to hire a team that's willing to make minimum wage with the expectation to exert maximum effort. You don't need any real skills to work for this company as they only want people to do what they decide to come up with that day. There are always massive fires they're trying to put out because they are only reactive to situations. Customers think we're an absolute joke, with no business sense. If you are looking to build your career in any way, stay far far far away from this company as your name will be drug in the mud. We work with some of the largest companies in town (for now), and in this industry, everyone knows each other. Management that is there to support you, including HR, have no real morals or values, and are Reyes Robots with no real sense of human compassion. They react out of retaliation or spite, and have no true managerial skills or ability to lead/motivate.
