Pros

peers and low level managers are great

Cons

-3 rounds of layoffs in the last two years -Company policy at the whim of one old out of touch man -Leadership puts the stock price before employees -Leadership ignores it's own research, it's own analysts, and treats employees like they're too dumb to notice -Low pay compared to industry standards. Limited or no opportunity for advancement. -Turnover leaves some teams very weak on talent. -High visibility analysts are asking questions publicly like "why should we work hard for no bonuses, why should we stay at all?"

Pros

Everything looks really impressive on the surface.

Cons

It seems like there's an effort to shift behavior, information, thought and emotion to limit critical thinking. Outside perspectives discouraged.

Pros

Least amount of lower level toxic managers I’ve seen at a public org.

Cons

Low pay and no diversity. They hired a DS&I leader but I don’t see any support from leadership in her initiatives. Very boomer focused company. The benefits they offer are very dated.
