Pros

Good 401k match Internal promotion opportunities Great coworkers

Cons

It's disappointing to see how lost leadership seems to be right now. The following events have happened: - HR starts prioritizing NY candidates, making it difficult for us to find people who are willing to work for our below-market average salaries. - Our CEO tells us "We have made major steps with culture and we finally feel like one company." - We all find out our merit increases and bonuses would be delayed until the end of March. - 274 of our colleagues are let go. - Budgets are cut. - We're told to do "more with less." Now we'll see what actually happens with our bonuses. For a company that also doesn't do adjustments for inflation, I don't know how they can expect anyone to stay here and work with any sort of hope. Fear is at an all-time high, people are exhausted, we're sick of being lied to, and other companies are offering better salaries and benefits. I can't stay here and not essentially take a pay cut due to inflation.
