Pros

Great schedule and work life balance Bonuses for successful year Exciting product line

Cons

Constantly under threat layoffs. No accountability of team. Some people don't show up to work, but still get paid. No acknowledgement of contributions, or going above and beyond, other than a passing notation on your review. Poor performance is overlooked if the employee is going to cause trouble. Optics are everything, and they don't want "negative press". On the flip side, someone else has to pick up their slack and go an extra mile to get everything completed on time. Their extra work is ignored, while the slacker continues to get raises and bonuses. Afraid to try anything new. Senior managers have been there 20+ years and are set in their ways. Anything new, different or a change to "the way we've always done it" is discouraged.

Pros

The compensation and benefits package appeared competitive compared to similar roles in the industry. The team members I met during the interview process were generally personable, professional, and knowledgeable about their work. The company also presents itself as collaborative and employee-focused during recruitment.

Cons

The hiring and onboarding process lacked organization, consistency, and internal alignment. Communication between Talent Acquisition, hiring management, and leadership appeared disconnected, resulting in conflicting information regarding fundamental terms of employment. After progressing through multiple interview rounds and receiving both verbal and written offers, critical details surrounding the position’s reporting expectations and work location changed unexpectedly immediately prior to the anticipated start date. The situation was handled poorly, with inconsistent messaging from different parties and limited accountability for the confusion. Attempts to professionally discuss potential solutions and compromises were met with resistance and ultimately resulted in the offer being rescinded. The overall experience reflected a lack of coordination between departments and created significant concern regarding internal communication, leadership alignment, and employee onboarding practices. For a large, established company, the process felt surprisingly unstructured and reactive.
