Star Far Away

Recommend

Pros

Some of the smartest employees I have worked with. However...

Cons

Management exhibits unethical behavior, which negatively impacts the overall work environment. This manifests in several ways, ranging from a lack of transparency to more severe actions. Specific examples include a lack of transparency, a culture of scapegoating and blame, legally questionable terminations of employees on leave, the alleged concealment of serious misconduct, and the alteration of ethical guidelines to align with strategic objectives, such as expansion into regions previously deemed ethically problematic.

Don’t Do It

Pros

Nothing I can think of.

Cons

Awful work environment and toxic leadership. The review entitled “Star Far Away” (sic) is accurate to a T. They will trap you by convincing you to leave your current job then force you to take on low level, miserable tasks, and if you don’t like it (or push back), you will be pushed out. The female leadership here will discourage the folks in finance and accounting from taking “Donut” breaks (even though they have undoubtedly taken their fair share of “Donut” breaks themselves) or collaborating with colleagues, and if you do, this will result in reprimand. If, during any interview with this company, you can sense that the interviewer is a miserable person who hates her life, follow your gut.

Pros

We’re all Explorers… Made one amazing (previously well-known) “discovery” using our ultra proprietary Artificial Intelligence technology!

Cons

Bait and switch recruiting tactics. Be prepared to be hired in with an important sounding job title, then given menial tasks commensurate with what would be assigned to an intern. If you express any discontent with that arrangement or the ridiculous workload (and awful, toxic working environment), be prepared for dismissal. Also be prepared for public ridicule and harassment for minor infractions (for tasks way below you and for which you will have received 0 training). This is what I have personally seen over the years, particularly within a finance organization run by 2 “large and in charge” ladies (both of whom are incompetent, among other things). Do not walk away from your current job to take an “opportunity” here. You will regret it.
