No raises because there's no money....and there won't be for a long time because no one in management knows how to lead. - Project Handler UL Solutions Employee Review

Pros

Peers are nice for the most part. They really tolerate a great deal of unacceptable behavior at all levels so if you can ignore bizarre / bipolar behavior you will be ok. Just be a "yes" man or woman and you will do fine.

Cons

This company is 120 years old and they were not for profit for 115 years. They are not equipped to handle functioning in a for-profit environment. A bunch of lazy, slackers with a tremendous sense of entitlement abound here. It can be quite a toxic environment and will really get to you if you let it.

Pros

WFH policy and great coworkers.

Cons

Role eliminated while executives and higher-ups spend ridiculous amounts of money on travel to "conferences", while transitioning the team to all contract/external employees to alleviate "budgeting" costs. Leaders continue to appease to higher-ups and C-level executives without a care or understanding of current team dynamics to protect themselves in a cutthroat and toxic environment filled with corporate politics. 0 growth for internal designers at below market salaries (20-25%) and below average benefits- when mentioned to leaders, profits are increasing YOY, yet the discussion becomes a "let's circle back" while 10+ contractors are immediately brought on board.
