Opaque Leadership, unhealthy work pressure

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits, pay, business partnerships all great

Cons

Unofficial 60 hour work weeks, regularly. (Not even including security incidents). Company loves to pull the rug out from under employees about major changes, such as hiring with a promise of a 4 day at home hybrid schedule, and a week later full RTO enforcement. Leadership is toxic, and looking to cut chaff wherever possible so it squashes interdepartmental cooperation as people don’t want to be fired for a problem, so they all blame each other instead of addressing issues.
