Pros

Tons of opportunities if you can network with others throughout the organization. As a new employee, NG offers 40 hours of PTO and then you can accrual throughout the year. In addition, they provide benefits and 401k.

Cons

Young talent aren't seen as powerful as seasoned employees. In some areas, compensation isn't as competitive as other organizations. Not enough work life balance. Also, performance reviews aren't accurately captured for those who aren't managers- compensated with a maximum bonus of 3%.

Pros

Not much pros but talented coworkers.

Cons

I joined expecting a long-term career and initially had a positive experience. Unfortunately, the culture changed significantly after leadership transitions. Micromanagement increased, decision-making became highly centralized, and employee morale steadily declined. Many experienced employees and managers left during my time there, making it difficult to maintain continuity and trust within the organization. The work itself was meaningful, and I had the opportunity to support important projects with talented colleagues. However, recognition, career growth, and employee retention did not appear to receive the same level of attention as process, reporting, and management oversight. My layoff was communicated as unrelated to performance, which was appreciated. However, after years of contribution and institutional knowledge, the overall experience left me feeling that employees were viewed as replaceable rather than valued long-term assets.
