Pros

Four day summer week is the only good benefit left. Rest is history.

Cons

Remote work is slowly making its way out and people are forced back into the office. Management isnt listen to what the “wisdom of crowd” is telling them. The company needs a complete overhaul of their senior leadership.

Pros

* Talented and hardworking team members across the department. * Opportunities to gain cross-functional experience and exposure to a variety of projects. * Team members are often supportive of one another despite leadership challenges.

Cons

* Project Services leadership operates with a narrow, rigid definition of what a “successful” project manager looks like, and advancement often depends more on alignment with a specific leadership style than actual performance or impact. * Employees with different cognitive or communication styles, including neurodivergent individuals, may find their strengths undervalued, while his or her deviations from the norm are scrutinized. * There is little room for authenticity. Employees may feel pressure to conform to be seen as leadership material. * Even infrequent mistakes can become long-term reputational markers, with limited opportunity for growth or reset. * A noticeable gap exists between positive performance feedback and actual career progression, even for tenured high performers with strong stakeholder feedback. * Managers are not consistently positioned or empowered to advocate effectively for their team members. * Policies, including hybrid/work-from-home expectations, are applied inconsistently, impacting trust and fairness. * Leadership culture can feel cliquey, with visibility and advancement influenced by informal networks rather than transparent criteria.
