Company peaked years ago and has been steadily declining. Lots of stress and mismanagement, with constantly changing priorities and direction, jobs do not feel secure. This company is very insular with low competition in the SLO area, which leads to a lack of talent and new ideas, low pay for the area's high cost of living, and local employees constantly overlooking its flaws (normally due to its image and past reputation that is no longer strong). I believe it's important for future job seekers to consider that this company suddenly and very callously laid off employees en mass by email during the pandemic, when others in the industry did not, leaving many without healthcare or support in the middle of a crisis. They put on a good show of being overly positive and supportive, but consistently lacked training opportunities and failed to follow through on many promises to employees. Actions speak louder than words... Not as many opportunities to grow anymore as you might assume at first.
Others: only 6 holidays and only 3 sick days, open office plans with frequent desk moves, very high turnover in all departments (top talent is increasingly looking elsewhere), office favoritism, problems due to lack of management training and support, acquisition turmoil and stress
