Pros

Fortrea is agile….though mostly in one very specific way: reorganizing. If you enjoy watching management and org charts get reshuffled every six months, they’ve mastered that kind of nimbleness. Beyond that, don’t expect meaningful agility in operations, decision-making, or delivery.

Cons

The organization is now full of “turtles on fence posts” people perched in senior roles (ED, VPs) without a clear path or experience that justifies how they got there. Meanwhile, the real fires, the operational issues that directly affect clients and delivery, continue burning unchecked under them. Leadership is disconnected from the actual problems happening on the ground.

Began as a collaborative and friendly environment to work, with amazing managers and coworkers.

Eventually began to have resourcing issues and layoffs which stretched people thin.
