Pros

Great focus on mission of product safety and strong leadership training courses available for career advancement. Pockets of great teams and leadership.

Cons

Current leaders are not going to get us where the company ultimately wants to go. Compensation is low and below market. Striving to be one UL but company silos are holding us back. Incredibly strong growth targets and not enough action plans & accountability to hit the aggressive targets.

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.
