Pros

+ It's remote work, Some days a lot less less work than others so it can be very relaxed at times. Same as most other remote positions. + Some positions may have a really good work life balance. + Could be a good stepping stone. Other companies will see this company name on a resume and be very excited to hire you after you decide to leave. + Most people you work with here are truly good people, some can totally ruin your day, but most of them tend to be great.

Cons

- Sometimes you are pushed to take on responsibilities that are not really at all in your job description. - Hardly offers any internal career growth, annual pay increases are very small (0-2%, maybe 5% total if you get a promotion). Was better pre-merger. - Low base pay compared to others in the industry. Not a clue why GD says the ranges are so high, they're not that high. - Flex time off isn't really a positive - employees tend to take less time with flex time off because they think they're requesting too much. - Same normal issues with larger corporate companies. A lot of headache statements like "This is beyond my control", "We need to get that approved through XYZ first", "We will know more in a few months once XYZ event happens", etc. from management which causes frustration, added work, and scope creep. - Sometimes completing work can feel unfulfilling.

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.
