Pros
There are still many talented, hardworking, and supportive employees across the organization.
Prior to the private equity acquisition, the company had a strong culture with opportunities for growth and collaboration.
The work itself can be interesting and impactful depending on your role and team.
Some teams continue to do their best to maintain a positive environment despite ongoing organizational changes.
Cons
Since the private equity acquisition, employee morale and trust in leadership have declined significantly.
Career advancement often feels dependent on internal relationships and favoritism rather than performance or qualifications.
Opportunities for growth within the U.S. have become increasingly limited as more roles are shifted to Europe.
Compensation is below market value for many positions.
Bonuses, which were historically considered part of total compensation, were removed for many employees without meaningful salary adjustments. For some employees, this effectively resulted in a significant reduction in compensation.
Annual raises have not kept pace with inflation or market standards.
Communication and transparency from leadership have become inconsistent, particularly regarding compensation and company direction.
Bonus payouts that employees were expecting are now months delayed with little clarity or accountability around timing.
Many employees no longer feel valued or confident in leadership decisions.
