Stagnant, out of touch, and uncaring - Research Analyst EAB Employee Review

Pros

Very smart co-workers, decent mid-level management, and lots of PTO

Cons

Where to even begin. Pay significantly under the market rate and benefits are no where near as good as they paint them to be. Senior leadership in the research department refuse to acknowledge employee concerns like retention and pay, even when droves of talented employees are leaving. While the research department re-orgs approximately every 6 months and burns people out from change fatigue, they refuse to re-evaluate the way they do work or upgrade the technology they use to help folks work more efficiently. HR is not there for employees. They "refuse" to negotiate salaries yet, I do know a select few employees (all men) that they negotiated with and gave discretionary raises and bonuses to. They also don't take complaints of discrimination seriously. The company claims to care about DEI but upper management and executive leadership is overwhelmingly white. They are all talk and no action.

Pros

Had a history of supporting employee needs (e.g. hybrid)

Cons

- has become obsessed with in-office culture and "being present" (i.e., super limited full remote roles now), would not be surprised if the exec team submits a RTO mandate soon - compensation is under what you should receive, regardless of tenure or level. The amount of work far outpaces your salary. -because of the point above, burnout and a culture of irritability is omnipresent. - do NOT take the senior promotion, it just results in more work (you do multiple smaller projects in addition to your current workload and now lead trainings) and a small pay increase that does not even match inflation. - expectation that less senior staff have to interpret everything, big lack of clarity between need-to-have feedback and preference-edit feedback - instead of annual raises that match inflation, you get to spend full days quarterly with the team talking about topics that have nothing to do with your day-to-day - Management has become very clique-y, good luck moving into management if you're not already a part of the clique (or fully remote) - Unpaid overtime is expected but you will get shamed for not doing everything during the workday. - We currently work with the military and with the police as recruitment strategists so ICE will probably be next
