Pros

Department and immediate management levels are great leaders, kind, fair people! We are given the processes, tools and other things we need to get our jobs done.

Cons

Senior leadership (C-suite) executives are different than when I started a couple years back. They are cancelling remote work and going back on job offers that were written to be fully remote. In mid-April 2023, they told employees they need to move back to Michigan by May 15th, or they could leave via a Voluntary Separation Plan (VSP)... pretty cold hearted, but wait it gets worse. The VSP originally allowed employees to continue to work remotely, but they changed that mid-stream too... so I guess it sucks for employees who moved away from the home office during the pandemic. I heard of an employee who was 2 months from retirement after working over 30 years with the company, and moved to FL during the Pandemic... They want her to move back and report at HQ. HEARTLESS. CE has hired a consulting firm called McKinsey, and I've heard the Execs taking guidance from them to cut our workforce down by at least 1/4 to help save a billion dollars by 2026, and provide lower rates. They're money grabbing execs, and the culture is tanking... all they care about is the mighty dollar.
