Pros

Work is always available New management seems to be trying to right a lot of wrongs Office environment is slightly better than other locations Training is getting a focus If you have an issue, peers are typically on your side to help Inclusive and welcoming Strong foundation and reputation, with intent to improve

Cons

New management is wronging a lot of rights Hybrid work schedule 3 office / 2 remote, even if you live across the HRBT and your commute could be anywhere from 50 minutes to 3 hours. (in office days less productive) Micromanagement from middle management, likely pressure from above Overly bureaucratic and process driven, resulting in wasted time with checking boxes instead of delivering products to a customer Lingering layoffs with middle management expected to fill roles that were lost (Likely market driven) pay raises recently less than inflation rate

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. As a project-based organization we recognize the importance of teamwork and cooperation in providing outstanding service that differentiates us from our competitors. We are firm believers that establishing strong relationships and connections within our team is best achieved through face-to-face interactions as opposed to a pure remote working environment. We are currently experiencing significant changes, especially in the Americas region, where we see promising opportunities for sustainable expansion. The input and experiences of our employees are highly valued as we navigate through these transformations. Change can be difficult, which is why we introduced the 'Be Heard' global engagement survey last year, ensuring that every employee's voice is heard. Our global leadership team, including the Americas president, is fully committed to driving the changes in the region, as we believe these adjustments will ultimately strengthen our organization as a whole. With regards to the comments about expected excessive travelling times into the office, there seems to be some misunderstanding of what has been communicated. We do not expect employees who live this far to commute into the office as regularly as those who live locally i.e. a reasonable distance. We would strongly suggest that you confidentially contact HR to gain more clarity on the official policy and how this impacts you personally. We appreciate your contribution to our team and your valuable perspective.
