Cons
Culture has become deplorable: -Promotions to management and upper level technical positions skewed in favor of gender and racial preferences (ie female and minority). Usually, this is done in the name of having the workforce reflect customer base, but this is deliberately left ambiguous in the details. It allows the company to exclude white males, but is only used to suit the company's desire to appear completely diverse instead of promoting the best person for the job (as an aside, I am not writing out of bitterness from being overlooked for a position that I desired; just what I observed based on those who received the various positions that came open for other jobs that I did not personally apply for). -Culturally, the entire organization is flawed from top to bottom in major way. Management is constantly shifted every few years (or less) in order for them to gain experience. In practice, this results in fly by night managers who don't care about their position, just their next position. The end result is an entire generation of young, inexperienced individuals who lack depth, attend numerous meetings to gain as much face time as possible, create numerous acronym riddled programs, often have no idea what or how their employees should really be doing for their job tasks and create useless, but trendy initiatives to boost their image, and dont have the time in the position to care about the people under them or the long term health of the organization. Problems are consistently blamed on previous management, not dealt with and new problems simply put off for the next person in the spot. Notice that I consistently use the term management and not leadership. The company is obsessed with keeping a pipeline of potential managers in development but does little to reward or develop leaders or those who show leadership qualities. In fact, those who voice anything other than the company line are seen to be a nuisance or troublemaker and excluded from any possibility of advancement to any position of real decision making authority. Lastly, the company has become so "woke" in the last year or so, that it has become a practical guarantee that blanket emails declaring the systemic racism of our culture and the company itself will be sent almost weekly. How can a company that detests itself so much have any chance of long term prosperity? If the company is so terrible, why is then constantly rated as one of the most diverse companies to work for?
