Profits over quality, words over actions

Pros

Good vacation allotment interesting but repetitive work task. good benefits ok pay.

Cons

Leadership consistently looks to overwork people due to lack of sfaffing and unwillingness to increase staff numbers. HR refuse to change hiring mindset from 10+ years ago when a job posting on the ckmpany website generated lots of applications, they continue to use these instead of actively recruiting amd using up to date online systems. the pay scale ratio has drastically not kept up with inflation. and has fell way behind where it stood in relation to industry over the last 5 yrs and moreso the last 10. people making poor decisions are continually put in position to keep making the same decisions. Quality of product is way down and emphasis is put on just getti g a product through production to get a payment over building a quality product right the first time. Rush to production while still designing creating lots of changes and rework needed post production. they speak alot about being the workplace of choice but do very little to actually create a good work life balance and an enjoyable workplace. A degree is valued over experience and competency. they don't take experience of qorkers into account when making decision on actions taken. innovation is discouraged. all this makes it hard to retain young new talent.

Pros

None. The positive aspects of working here was the remote work but management intends to end remote work.

Cons

You are severely overworked. This company encourages overworking with mandatory OT, praises those who work large amounts of OT and shaming those who don't. Each and every project is a priority and you could find yourself working 2 or more priority projects simultaneously. Certain department are not able to keep up with the work load however, the charts management uses to keep track workload shows the headcount to work load does not justify bringing new workers in. Remote work was implemented at the beginning of COVID however management intends to bring worker back into the office even if your job is entirely at your desk. This was met with resistance from the employees. Management has admitted that they are unable to determine whether employees are actually working when they are remote and they can watch us better in the office. Management also believes that the lack of interest and delay in work is due to the disconnect of working remotely and not the burnout most employees are feeling. They boast the compensation for working here is ahead of the industry. That may have been true 10 years ago but it's not longer true. Compensation and raises at or below industry standards. There is an age divide at this company. They are unable to retain to new and young employees with the compensations and working conditions they currently offer.
