Pros

The people are great. But most are so depressed and demotivated now that it's not AS great

Cons

The company has required us to write a positive review specifically to help the impressions when candidates and investors are researching the company. Reading many of the current reviews - its obvious that the fear-based management style is across the board. The nature of this request was not positioned as 'please leave a review' but as 'Team we need you to post a positive review and make sure your teams are all doing the same' It also indicates how out of touch leadership is. The leadership is to scare people about losing their jobs instead of motivating. There are no raises, nor advancement opportunities and no perks

Pros

Santa Monica (corporate) office has a chef. Lunches are homemade and delicious. Fantastic hours: can arrive at the office around 10:30am and leave around 5:30pm.

Cons

There is no work to do 90% of the time. Employees are paid to go to the office so that the office appears "full" for the one in-person meeting the CEO has per week. There were multiple months where I received/sent less than five emails per month. All strategic initiatives were positioned as grandiose by the CEO; after each initiative was discussed, it was never raised again and no work was done. The only initiatives that were actually pursued were those related to trying to trick lenders into extending Exela, a highly-distressed company that was heading toward bankruptcy, additional debt to pay off the interest payments of its existing debt facilities. However, I imagine (and hope) Exela operates differently once it emerges from bankruptcy this summer (2025).
