Be a technology company, not a political mouthpiece

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Pros

-Virtual/WFH -Salary -Vacation Policy -Nothing else

Cons

- Legacy company trying to switch to the cloud but not having really strategized on the best approach to do that. Unless you count just acquiring company's and seeing which ones might give the perception of modernization. -NEED to be a liberal if you want to enjoy working here. The constant barrage of far left wing political views from CEO and upper management is astounding. In the era of the Great Resignation, do you think it is smart to be incredibly biased toward one political/moral perspective? Why not be indifferent like a large technology company should be? Example: They will pay for abortions and gender re-assignment treatments, up to the point of providing $4k in per diem to travel out-of-state if the employee's state has laws against it. And claim to even be able to cover it as an "in-network expense". -They plan to be MAJORITY diverse with a 50/50 gender parity. Sorry if you are a white male... career progression doesn't look too promising. Equity means "fair and impartial". Does the above seem impartial? I guess this is the same equity as only considering appointing a black female to be a Supreme Court Justice.
