Pros

- Opportunity to move around the company and learn different things

Cons

- barely get increases (1-3% per year) - upper management doesn't know what they're doing, very disorganized and just throw a bunch of responsibilities at employees with no direction and no understanding of realistic expectations - their MO is throw you into the fire and figure it out -> no guidance or mentorship - increases in responsibility are disguised as 'opportunity' instead of actually getting a pay raise for what your doing outside the scope of your responsibilities - the demote/fire people they don't like/get along with but do it in a sneaky way, slowly taking responsibilities off your plate as if they are trying to help you - office culture is full of drama and gossip spreads fast

Pros

- good people working in certain areas of company - biggest and most powerful company in their space

Cons

- business model focuses on paying young people low salaries and running workforce very thin, leading to high turnover rate and regular new hires - company’s aggressive growth ambitions lead to a strategy that focuses on growth through acquiring competitors frequently which creates routine instability for the workforce - payment structures are frequently changed year to year, company does not offer competitive raises year over year, even more so during years where company acquisitions are planned - not a great long term career plan, upper leadership pushes an agenda which does not value loyalty to experienced professionals - Upper management includes a number of nepo hires and managers who are strictly self interested with weak communication skills - Instances of employees with young children and prior commitments having overtime and weekend shifts mandated after years service under an agreed upon schedule - Numerous instances of clique behavior with participation from management, very much can be a boys club which favors yes men - Lack of direct communication from management/leadership, culture of whispering behind closed doors about each other and lots of company politics
