Pros

The only good thing about the company were the non-manager employees.

Cons

Working here is like being in an abusive relationship, you stay because you hope one day it will get better, they tell you they can change, but it never lasts. Micromanagement is not only a widely accepted, normalized practice but is encouraged. Directionless upper management, rudderless middle management concerned with maintaining perceptions. Honesty and innovation are discouraged, conformity and perception management are highly prized. You are not allowed any autonomy, and are unable to make even the smallest decisions for yourself. My boss frequently gaslights me by disguising his endless directives as "suggestions" hinting and insinuating of some constant, looming problem with my performance which he is never able to articulate or define. My boss watches my Teams activity and monitors whenever I'm offline. If you want to feel inadequate this is the place for you. You will never meet expectations hard as you try, they will only move the goal posts, rip apart your work, even if you do exactly as they tell you they will redo it and make you watch.

Pros

Remote work and unlimited PTO

Cons

In my experience, the company places a strong emphasis on cost reduction, which has resulted in frequent reductions in force and ongoing concerns about job security. Long-tenured employees are not immune to these workforce reductions, creating uncertainty and impacting morale across the organization. One recurring concern among employees has been compensation and annual merit increases. Through employee surveys and feedback channels, many employees expressed dissatisfaction with the size of merit raises. Earlier this year, leadership acknowledged these concerns and communicated that changes would be made to improve the compensation process and better align raises with employee expectations. However, when merit increases were ultimately distributed, many employees felt the results fell short of what had been communicated, with some receiving lower increases than anticipated. This led to frustration and a perception that employee feedback was not meaningfully acted upon. While the company offers opportunities to gain experience, prospective employees should carefully consider factors such as job stability, compensation growth, and leadership transparency when evaluating the organization.
