Pros
The benefits were decent and I enjoyed working with most of my co-workers. ERGs were cool and even though I didn't get a chance to officially join any, the few events I went to were awesome.
Cons
Leadership has no clue what they are doing. They make one head-scratching decision after another. Then when the outcome isn't what they expected, instead of saying hmm perhaps we are the ones at fault they instead shift the blame to employees. Which then leads to mass layoffs. It's been nothing but a rinse and repeat on that cycle for several years now. I secretly imagine that they just throw darts at a wall to determine what "strategic" move they are going to make next. The lights may be on in C Suite, but clearly no one is home. I used to brag about Relias all the time but now not so much. You definitely aren't paid what you should be making at all for your role in this industry. And now that merit increases went bye bye, you never will. The environment has gotten beyond toxic. From gaslighting to backstabbing you name it, it is going on.Favoritism just running rampant left and right and if you aren't a leader's favorite, good luck trying to move up. Sadly there are still some diehard Kool-Aid drinkers that haven't removed their rose-colored glasses yet. I feel for them but when that inevitable day comes, cause trust me it will, they will regret not leaving the ship of their own free will before they are thrown overboard to fend for themselves in the deep waters. No longer being at Relias is the blessing I needed! It is a sinking ship.
