Good bonuses, biased leadership

Pros

Great bonus structure, fun events that build good culture, great people work there!

Cons

Traditional work place (can't come after 8 or leave before 5), traditional PTO plans, underpaid for the amount of time and work put in, leaders pick and choose their favorites and no opportunities for growth

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you appreciated the bonus structure, culture-building events, and—most importantly—the people you worked with. That sense of community and connection is something we work hard to cultivate, so it's encouraging to hear it resonated with you. We also hear your concerns. We recognize that our workplace structure and policies may not be a perfect fit for everyone, and we’re continuously evaluating how to evolve in ways that support both our culture and our team’s needs. Feedback around fairness, pay, and growth opportunities is something we take seriously. While we aim to foster a workplace where all team members feel valued and have access to opportunities, we know there’s always room for improvement. Reviews like yours help us reflect and keep striving to do better. We truly appreciate the impact you made while you were here, and we wish you the very best in what’s ahead. —POET Team

Pretty decent job

Pros

Okay pay, work/life balance if you like 12hr shifts. Operations management is solid at least where I worked.

Cons

Training is hit or miss depending on the shift you land on.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review and share your experience at POET! We’re glad to hear that you’ve had a positive experience with work/life balance and found operations leadership to be solid — that’s something we work hard to get right. You brought up a great point about training! We’ve heard from a few team members across shifts that consistency in onboarding and development can vary — this seems to be a common opportunity at many organizations, but is something that we at POET are actively working to improve. Clear goals, aligned expectations, and solid mentorship should be the standard, not the exception. Your suggestion to streamline the process is spot-on and already part of our internal conversations. Thanks again for your input — it helps us fuel the kind of growth we want to see across all of POET.
