Pros
Nice holiday party at the end of the year for employees. Several lunch and learn opportunities which provide free lunches, as well as breakfast being provided on Tuesdays. Cool projects.
Cons
While I think this company has the potential to be great, there are several areas that need improvement. In my short time there I had seen several people come and go which was alarming. The workplace often felt very cliquey and I was always the outsider listening to people be two-faced. This just sets the foundation for a toxic workspace when you’re supposed to be a team. Management in certain departments needs a wake up call on how to properly treat people. The previous reviewer who said “I often left the day feeling inadequate or out-right stupid for not being able to read management's mind when a lack of clear direction or communication was used,” could not be more spot on. When work from home days were introduced to provide flexibility to employees it felt like I had to fight for the days that worked best for me making the flexibility of the gesture slim to none. Additionally, no matter how much effort I put into my tasks and how well I performed, it always felt like it was never enough. Even when praised for my work, I received below-average review scores with the explanation that “there’s always room for improvement” this approach just made me feel undervalued instead of saying “you’re doing great and I want you to be exceptional.” Positive reinforcement goes a long way. Towards the end the joy and excitement I initially felt for this job had disappeared due to these issues and more.
