Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. UL Solutions shifted from a not-for-profit entity to a for-profit entity in 2012. For the last ten years we have made a massive transition towards being a for-profit entity. Every employee at UL Solutions is eligible to participate in our annual company incentive program and bonus targets are offered even for entry level employees. We are actively working to include more decision makers from more regions in system changes and operations. Thank you for sharing this feedback. If you have more you’d like to share, we encourage you to reach out to human resources.

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.
