It can be a toxic workplace. They enforce an open door policy which is comforting yet only a select few utilize this which creates one sided narratives. Gossiping is an actual issue. There is a retired IT manager known as the King of Gossip. He’d spill executive and HR gossip all the time. He no longer works for the company but claims to have executives wrapped around his finger and jokes he still works at the company as a consultant. That’s how deep the gossip issue runs and just one example. The narratives become influential in decision making. Another issue is compensation. Promotions take awhile and sometimes they don’t come with a high pay raise. I’ve known people to get a title change and be told their last merit increase was their raise. I know managers that are paid less than their staff. They gave executives 40 percent raises but defer all promotions/pay raises for employees.

I’m not sure where to start on this as a company and hold. They are very good unfortunately and the departments where there’s multiple supervisors, they tend to supervise in different ways and with cubicles being so close to other supervisors, you frequently over here private conversations because the supervisors are in a cubicle instead of an office, you also see supervisors that are very generous and kind to the team under them such as bringing in breakfast, etc. while other supervisors don’t even really communicate with their staff, the company does honor their employees but certain job positions specifically get honored throughout the year while the rest of the staff Only get acknowledged when the entire company gets acknowledged
