Pros

Ok you got a job...

Cons

This is absolutely the WORST company I ever worked for in a 15 year career. There is no leadership... it's a bunch of land of the broken toy "managers." People who have zero trust, micromanage and are only concerned about shall we say, greater aspirations since owned by private equity firm. Mass layoffs each quarter. The CEO is a talking head and the CTO really runs the firm. All smoke and mirrors folks...you all have seen the The Wizard of Oz. Here it is in real life... There is a much longer negative post listed here that is even more concise to the situation. Do yourself a BIG favor DO NOT COME to Work Here. So many people with exit strategies happening in the background.

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.
