COCC reviews

I can’t think of any, this is the best place I have worked

Since the pandemic, there has been a lot of mixed messaging from upper management. One minute, they are saying how great we are doing as a fully remote staff, then the next they are pushing for a return to office saying we aren't performing well remotely. Pay was well below industry standard. They used to compensate for this with other perks, but those slowly went away, while pay stayed stagnant. Nepotism is a major issue here. There are some higher ups within the company that definitely got promoted due to who they knew, not what they could do, and it shows in how they run their teams. It made it hard to move up past a certain point. They shifted a majority of the perks to focus on in office employees. If you were in office, you would get free food, company parties, free tickets to local events, and more. If you were fully remote, you got next to nothing. At the end of the year, the company used to give out generous gift cards (around $200 in average), then it went to a Yeti mug, then to an extremely cheap backpack that felt like it was made of plastic. They said they compensated by offering us a "lifestyle spending account", but it was restricted to what we could use it on.
