Pros
Although expensive, decent benefits There are/were some good managers in the organization
Cons
Layoffs are way too frequent and nonsensical as it left gaps/holes in how the work can be done. Stellar performers were laid off only to be in a pool of 2k other people trying to apply for open roles. Amidst layoffs, there are roles open for basically the same jobs and they’re hiring! People are getting demoted (they call it reorganization or restructure) but it’s clear they’re demoting people to eventually do more layoffs and not have to pay as much in SUB benefits as they don’t have a true severance. The CEO mentions shareholders in calls every 4 seconds and masks all efforts in virtuous pursuits. They’re pursuing a digital strategy at all costs but have no idea how to approach it. They hired a new digital leader who had public issues with both Nike and Kohl’s…the list goes on. Lastly, they are forcing people back in office. Such an oxymoron for a company that wants to be a digital leader but isn’t smart enough to employ digital efforts for their onshore employees - yet there’s a push to automate and our jobs are going offshore to folks who CANNOT work in office.
