Pros

The mission of the company is noble and needed. Coworkers are caring, bright, and hardworking individuals.

Cons

While the company mission is admirable, it is now consistently overshadowed by a drive for money over all, a lack of consistent messaging, and poor leadership. Tools are so far behind that leadership has placed huge bets on AI, which continues to disappoint and underwhelm. When once the company looked within for talent to train and promote, we now hire more from the outside, particularly for senior leadership, which has been disastrous for morale and culture. Layoffs have eroded trust not only because now there is too much work for everyone else to absorb (with poor tools all around), but also because our current leadership doesn’t understand the overall mission or individual and team responsibilities. Leadership messages are chaotic. Managers don’t know how to cover for senior leadership missteps, training is abysmal, and many are looking for employment elsewhere. We’ve already lost great talent, and more losses are looming.
