The Washington Post Reviews

A lot of turnover - people wanting to leave and people forced to leave. I've survived a number of layoffs here.

- Upper management makes poor decisions with no clear direction. It's all politics and poor (or basically no) leadership - Heavy focus on AI products even though there's been plenty of feedback from users that they DON'T LIKE THEM - In-office 5 days/wk with little flexibility. They've eased up on the monitoring, but were treating employees like school children with attendance early on. - Benefits have slowly been getting worse, with premiums going up and the 5 day RTO effectively acting as a pay cut - CTO is extremely toxic (known for improper, unprofessional behavior) - Company-wide attempts to "self-correct" have often gone very poorly - Compensation is kind of low for the DC and NY areas - *Career growth has changed over the years. Requirements have changed and it's now like a constantly moving goalpost - Annual appraisals have also gotten a lot stricter, making chances for a decent raise slim
