Rampant favoritism creates unfair and uncomfortable working conditions
Pros
Flexible work arrangement Some good and smart people
Cons
As others have pointed out, there's a noticeable culture of favoritism at the highest levels. From my experience in the Salt Lake City office on the client support side, if you're not among the select few who are favored, it’s very unlikely you'll receive promotions, recognition, or meaningful support. Senior management at the office plays a key role in this dynamic, showing clear preference for a small inner circle while often dismissing or demeaning others. What’s especially concerning - and widely noticed - is senior management's tendency to give more attention to younger women in a way that feels both unprofessional and inappropriate. It’s something that’s quietly acknowledged by many and contributes to an uncomfortable and unhealthy work atmosphere. Leaders at this level should be setting a standard of fairness and respect for everyone, as they represent the company in a major way. Additionally, there’s an excessive push around alcohol in the office—so much so that it's not uncommon to see bottles of hard liquor on people’s desks. This only adds to the uncomfortable environment.
