Pros
Peers were amazing for the most part
Cons
An article was recently published about record growth at Absorb, what wasn't published was how employees suffered to make that happen: 1. At the beginning of the pandemic, Absorb laid off employees from almost every department, as the demand for an LMS went up, those still employed quickly became overworked due to the cuts, which I'm sure most wouldn't have minded, if there had been any appreciation from leadership. 2. Also during the pandemic, Absorb chose to change the 35 hour work week to a 40 hour work week. They then informed us that our wages and hours would be reduced. For teams reduced by 10%, they were now working 36 hours a week for 10% less pay. An extra hour a week for 10% less during a mentally and financially exhausting global pandemic. 3. Absorb also completely stopped contributing to employee RRSP until the end of 2020. 4. They also decided to "revamp the bonus structure". Bonuses were originally given in December, because of the restructure, the bonus was delayed until February 2021. This means that employees did not get a bonus in all of 2020. This is a company that shows zero empathy and appreciation from a disgustingly selfish Senior Leadership team. The way that the pandemic was handled, in a year of record growth for this company, is absolutely unbelievable. The employees deserve better.
