1. Mediocre benefits. No 401k match, no short-term or long-term disability, no cost-of-living adjustment, and 10 weeks of paid parental leave, to name a few.
2. Poor WLB. Leadership promotes unhealthy work-life boundaries and claims this weeds out low performers. ICs and middle managers are busting their a**es and taking on more than they can handle to keep the organization "lean."
3. Employees are disposable. Leadership's answer to solving problems is surprise layoffs and firing notices. At least Amazon gives you a PIP.
4. "Yes-Men" culture, especially with senior leadership. Feedback, even when constructive, can result in you being ostracized and even forced out of the organization.
5. Unprofessional behavior (i.e. yelling at employees, microaggressions at minority employees) from management.
6. Limited growth opportunities after two levels. As an organization that serves students and early-career professionals, they unfortunately don't care too much about helping their own employees grow.
