Executive Leadership is Closed Minded

Pros

Lots of good benefits. Great health care, free food, etc but far out weighed by the cons below.

Cons

Very cutting edge company but has a toxic work environment that will drive you into quitting or being extremely frustrated. Overtime is always expected and saw people have little to no vacation despite the “unlimited vacation” policy and working every weekend. One employee asked about a 4 day work week where the CEO responded “we are more likely switching to a 6 or 7 day work week.” The pay at first was very good. However, the company preaches saving cash in justifying below inflation raises. All while the executives fly private jets and eat lavish dinners on the companies dime while giving themselves large raises and bonuses. Leadership is made up of people with former fancy titles that could care less about you or your success or know anything of leadership. Individual contributions are hardly recognized and if you not in the C suite or in with them you will be left in the dust.

Toxic Leadership

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Was a good experience when the company was still small, free lunch

Cons

Someone doesn't quit because the work is too hard and usually doesn't because the pay is not good. Someone quits when leadership is filled narcissists. They quit when leadership is not aware of their egos. They quit when leadership doesn't listen. They quit when they are constantly disrespected. They quit when leadership is arrogant, egotistical, and destroys team harmony. A person quits when their mental health is getting worse day by day just because they work for terrible leaders. They quit when boot licking is promoted and honesty is punished. They quit when the office environment is too political and toxic. If you decide to accept a position here, make sure your team is not like this, because most of them are. Or at least make sure the pay is worth what you're about to experience.
