Good company to work for

Pros

Good pay and benefits, treats employees well, extensive training program, friendly culture and recently relaxed the dress code. Impressed with how ifm is handling the Covid situation. Changes have been made to the building. It is July and, very slowly, people are returning to work. When they do, everything is spaced more than required. The USA CEO and the owner from Germany have been communicating with all employees and I found the weekly emails very informative. There is a mix of race and religions. Anyone wishing to present an idea will be heard.

Cons

One con is that some managers are flexible; some are not. This is a hot topic amongst all employees since it is so obvious, especially those managers that allow their employees to work from home or have flexible hours. You can talk a good talk and get what you want (although we can all have a reason to work from home; but managers like some reasons/people more than others). It is noticeable and unfair; employees are frustrated.
