Absolute chaos. High turnover. Many talented employees continue to leave due to lack of direction. While leadership changes in recent years have brought some improvement, the overall culture and management remain poor. Much of the workday is spent juggling shifting timelines and schedule updates instead of making meaningful progress. HR practices are another pain point. The rigid 5-day in-office policy, payroll errors, and failure to address inappropriate behavior—such as individuals promoting personal religious beliefs at work—reflect a lack of accountability. There also appears to be no clear talent retention strategy in place. The recruitment process is inefficient and inconsistent. In some instances, candidates are flown in and heavily courted, and in other instances, they’re hired without a clear defined role. Frequent reorgs also further prevent the company from building a cohesive, functional structure. Parental leave policies are also deeply outdated. The company offers only two weeks of paternity leave, which sends the message that fathers are not expected to play an equal role at home. This policy has been a deal breaker for some candidates, and rightly so. It’s out of step with modern expectations and family needs.

NO downside, evrything here seems good.
