Good benefits, but poor organization

Pros

Unlimited PTO and good work life balance.

Cons

Lack of structure within the company, with no clear direction from management. Low pay and barely there raises. Work culture is very impersonal and supervisors do not really care.

Avid is a hot mess inside a dumpster fire inside a train wreck

Business Outlook

Pros

Although some positions can be remote and some employees are fantastic, the STG buyout has created turmoil in which employees are not paid bonuses and layoffs are conducted in secret (search for Boston Business Journal article).

Cons

STG, despite having no media industry knowledge, has started to gut the company of longstanding employees, which is going to sink operations shortly. They are looking to sell the company in 3 to 5 years without concern for the company after that. Layoffs are ongoing and conducted in secrecy, bonuses are not paid or very small, and raises do not keep pace with inflation. Morale has dropped precipitously. Sadly, I see extreme turbulence in 2024, and the volume of changes in a short amount of time will prove to be irrecoverable as Avid is now committed to whatever strategy they are attempting to follow with penny-pinching and a forsaken skeleton staff that is going to be overworked with the reductions in force. I encourage all to just look at the satisfaction trend on here and you'll see the decline.
