Pros

- Unlimited PTO if you live in the U.S. - Very supportive direct manager - Ability to grow / learn

Cons

- Low pay - Unstable company. Way too many layoffs. Several layoffs each year. Layoffs happen so often that they are no longer announced/acknowledged company wide. -

Hi, this is Molly Thiel, Chief Operating Officer. Thank you for your candid feedback. I'm glad you value our PTO policy, supportive leadership, and growth opportunities. These are important aspects of our culture that we strive to maintain. I hear your deep concern about organizational stability and the impact of staffing changes on our people. While business decisions affecting our workforce are never made lightly, I acknowledge that the frequency of these changes can affect team morale and trust. Your feedback about communication transparency is particularly valuable. We recognize that every employee represents not just a number, but years of dedication, expertise, and relationships. Unfortunately, we are not alone in adjusting the size of our workforce with changing market conditions. And while that kind of resizing is sometimes a necessary part of business management, we also focus on providing opportunities for learning and advancement, engaging teams in giving back to our communities, making valuable connections with new people across our global business, all while maintaining our commitment to transparent communication about organizational changes. Your perspective helps us understand how we can better align our actions with our stated values about putting our people first. If you'd like to share more specific thoughts or suggestions, please reach out to me directly at Molly.Thiel@cielotalent.com.

Pros

well established clients. Interesting projects; friendly coworkers

Cons

No bonus, no merit increase pay out over the last 4 years. They say they want to strenghten their customer relationships and allocate more to AI but this is the worst way to do it. If your team went above and beyond and secured continuing business the bare minimum is a small merit increase. Growth opportunities for high performing employees will bring you more business. There is nothing to look forward to aside from a paycheck and contract renewal every 6 months.
