Pros
The pay is market rate. Benefits used to be good but are very much on their way out.
Cons
Layoffs are now part of the culture. This year's version was a very short-notice Return to Office order that gave people 3 weeks to move back to the area after being assured we were a remote company over and over again. Last year a 'migration' deleted all of our old e-mails and once this RTO order came, all traces of this being a remote work office were erased from our internal network that goes by the name Loop. Dishonesty is built into the culture here but this was done in the sloppiest manner possible, with no acknowledgement of the shift or the number of employees who would be losing their jobs since no one can change their living arrangements in the 3 week period. The new CEO goes to companies, guts them, then runs. It's clear that the RTO was the first phase of this and I've already advised everyone to start looking for other avenues of income. There is no semblance of DEI here. If you are a minority, treat this as you would any other hostile territory. HR will regularly try to tokenize someone from a group so they can come back and point to them whenever someone questions their very weird relationship with people of color. The brownnosing culture is completely out of hand. Promotions aren't merit-based on any level. It's detrimental to the business and since flagging issues is discouraged, we continue to sink into the hole until people are eventually fired and replaced with no word to their teams, then the whole thing starts over again. Both the company and the employees are robbed of potential as a result of this. There is no development. Good employees are rewarded with more work. Great ones end up leaving. The reviews are a sham because I was told by my boss that their boss said to not hand out any high marks and heard the same from others across several departments. If you do go out of your way to learn something on your off time, do not mention it because they will try to stick you with a new duty with no additional pay. If they get tired of you asking for role development to get to the next pay band, they'll point you to LinkedIn learning. Senior management doesn't understand what boundaries are. Before I left, I had to block a one that didn't understand what an emergency was, constantly messaging my personal number for non-urgent issues because they couldn't be bothered to search their e-mail to get the answer. The work awards are fake. They just paid for some nonsense 'top place' to work award or something that did not survey employees. Probably a $20k flat fee and a few LinkedIn posts so recruiters could use it when luring the next sucker into open positions at a lower pay band than the person who previously occupied it was at.
