Pros

Flexible PTO, good people outside of management

Cons

- Despite promises made during recruitment process of an open, supportive and growth oriented atmosphere, Xplor instead focused on a culture of public humiliation and bullying by management. Resulting in an atmosphere where team members felt constantly on edge, always bracing for the next verbal assualt. - Communication from management was often conflicting and confused. An objective or change of "vision" one week can be completely changed at the drop of a hat. Messages were often conflicting and confused, which created unnecessary tension and a lack of trust in the information disseminated. Decisions were made without any consultation or explanation, leaving employees feeling disrespected and undervalued - toxic behavior by management went unchecked. Despite several complaints to higher management and HR, no action was taken to curtail this behavior, which further emboldened my manager and left me and my colleagues feeling helpless and trapped - Below market rate pay I write this review not out of spite, but in the hope that it can serve as a cautionary tale for potential future employees. Companies that fail to understand the value of their employees and create a hostile work environment are simply not worth the toll they take on your mental and emotional health.

Pros

I still get to work with the team I was acquired with (those who weren't unceremoniously canned at least).

Cons

-Insists on a hyper rigid corporate model, and it shows everywhere. In product development, leadership, HR. There's so much bureaucracy and rigidity in getting an answer to anything and all it means at the end of the day is that everyone you go to for help or clarification will pass the buck to the next guy. -Zero regard for employees as people. These people are cheap cheap cheap. It shows in salaries and benefits (worst US medical premium coverage I've ever seen), but also in subjecting employees to using terrible outdated tools, and in laying people off at a moment's notice with no regard for them or the workloads of those left behind. HR/People team where it seems like nobody knows what to do or how to help; everything is someone else's job. -It is a mess internally. It's a company made up of 20+ other products/brands, and nobody's talking to each other because nobody even can talk to each other. Everyone's on different systems, different payroll, different Slack, different Teams, two different versions of every policy, it's a joke. -It's depressing as hell watching them buy up other companies, fire half of them, and suck the soul out of those left behind. -I had a job I loved before we merged with Xplor. It's been less than a year here now and I cannot get out of here fast enough.
