Great place to work

Pros

Outstanding leaders at the Department Manager level and below. New CEO is phenomenal, guiding the company through a particularly tough time. I have some amazing colleagues.

Cons

There are people not contributing because they lack the required skill. The RIF that just occurred was unpleasant but needed. We lost a lot of nice people but they weren’t necessarily contributing at the required level—my opinion.

Mark Peters and the leadership team have handled the layoffs well so far. They are being transparent and are treating people with respect during this difficult process.

Cons

There's not much the leaders can do in this situation.
