Pros

- You get to work from home

Cons

Working at EAB has been one of the most frustrating professional experiences of my career and I'm SO glad I'm quitting soon. Here’s why: You’re regularly assigned work with little to no quality assurance, which leads to endless back-and-forth questions and confusion. The company is obsessed with meetings. Entire days are eaten up by Zoom calls that add no value and derail actual productivity. Processes are painfully inefficient, redundant, and outdated – it feels like running in circles just to get basic tasks done. Micromanagement is rampant. Instead of trusting employees to own their work, leaders hover over every small decision, creating a suffocating environment. Training is practically non-existent, and when it is offered, it’s led by contractors who clearly don’t care and just go through the motions. There’s no real investment in developing employees. You’re expected to somehow figure it out on your own in a broken system, and when things go wrong, leadership is quick to blame rather than support.

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
