It seems most people were there for perks alone and not for career development. HR is unfriendly and difficult to work with – I would rather go to the DMV. Company often makes promises to employees it can't keep. Some departments are very political.

Over time, the environment changed substantially. The culture became increasingly political, and advancement appeared more relationship-driven than performance-driven. Transparency around role changes and workforce reductions felt inconsistent with public messaging, which created confusion and mistrust internally. In my experience, raising concerns through formal channels did not result in meaningful resolution. The environment became highly competitive and, at times, emotionally taxing. What was once a collaborative culture shifted into one that felt siloed and difficult to navigate. There was a noticeable gap between stated values around inclusion and how decisions were experienced at the team level.
