Pros

I had genuinely delightful direct managers and fellow core team members. My managers did an excellent job shielding their direct reports from the chaos above them, but it took a toll. PTO and work-life balance were good for me, but not everyone. Unlimited PTO gets a bad rap, but the flexibility was appreciated as was remote work. I loved the “Me days” arrangement around long weekends.

Cons

It’s hard for people to do their best work when they’re living perpetually in a state of fight or flight. If you had trouble logging into your laptop, you immediately assumed you’d been laid off but hadn’t been told yet. “Reorganizations” were so constant, you always thought you were next. Leadership preaches work-life balance but actively discourages it in practice.

Pros

Completely remote work. That's about the only pro.

Cons

Let's start with the IT department. A ticket goes in and it's easily ignored for 24 hours. And when you do get a response from IT it will take days, weeks for a computer issue to get resolved. All while your boss and clients are breathing down your neck to meet a deadline but you can't because IT won't fix your computer problems. How the IT department at Circana hasn't completely gotten fired and replaced is beyond me. We hear constantly from senior leadership - speed! Efficiency! - yet can't do that when computers don't work. The work itself: Mind numbingly boring. Circana tries desperately to be consultative and provide insights but they are so far from doing so. Impossible to make any kind of meaningful changes at the company b/c the culture is so slow and plodding. Constant org changes by a bunch of higher-ups who don't know what they are doing. Justify the changes with slogans and phrases but has zero understanding of how these org changes actually will work. Oh -- good luck Circana keeping employees when you don't provide even the basic cost of living increases.
