Pros

Good health benefits and 401k match that is really generous.

Cons

C-Suite is well connected in a prior company and constantly changing. Company direction is uncertain and the company value story is getting lost. Communication is lacking. Quiet quitting: Expect constant layoffs for tenured employees while hiring and staffing changes are made at the highest levels. Execution across all departments is slow as they bring in new resources for all groups and siloed (example: Branding and marketing is in constant flux without a team approach. Marketing Teams are being moved into engineering teams.)

Pros

Working from home and the benefits are okay, but not really any different from those in most other organizations.

Cons

Too many managers are ill-informed about how much work there is to complete. Too many meetings pull employees away from work, yet they are chastised for work-life balance. I do not want to miss a deadline, so I work extra hours but don't report them. Processes seem to change daily. People-first is all but forgotten. Customer service is the unsung hero, carrying the weight of the world but often overlooked. Unrealistic classroom times leave little to no time for Q&A. There are manager pets and clicks in the organization. "Ohana" (meaning Family) is a joke. Do not share innovations with others; they are often stolen by others who will take accolades and credit for themselves. There are egotistical managers who could use a lesson in humility. Growth is nearly impossible. Personal review is a waste of my time. The manager is going to override my ratings with their own. Just give me my review and let's get on with it. It's been all downhill since the merge. Layoffs are a constant worry.
