Pros

Remote work, but that is really it.

Cons

Compensation used to be competitive, but workload, expectations and initiatives have increased, Everyone is being asked to do more, and work harder with the same resources with no consideration for fair pay. Senior leaders are well aware of how they are perceived, but choose to do nothing, or simply say they are working on fixing things, with no tangible efforts seen. Our CEO is running the reputation, culture, and company into the ground for the sake of revenue. Him and his executive team are known bullies, and even though this has been complained about by so many of us, even to HR, nothing is ever done about it. We NEED board intervention. Just take a look at PMI's ratings. Even with the reviews obviously crafted and directed by internal leaders to try and suppress negative reviews. I will also add that career growth is non-existent, and the determined best fix for these concerns was training telling employees its their problem to figure out. Really makes us feel valued.

Pros

Benefits, flexibility with WFH setup, talented employees,

Cons

HR appears more focused on minimizing costs than supporting employees. I’ve seen serious issues raised, only to be dismissed or ignored, which has led to talented people leaving the organization. On the Marketing team, if people quit they are rarely replaced. You absorb the work that your former colleagues leave you. Very little opportunities for advancement unless you are a favorited employee.... ironic being a professional development organization. Management is also stretched thin and burned out, which limits their ability to effectively lead or support their teams’ growth. Frequent restructuring adds to the instability, making it difficult to feel secure or confident in the direction here.

Toxic leadership and unqualified executives harm morale

Pros

Some nice people in the company

Cons

The Executive team is extremely unqualified. Menaka’s toxic bullying leadership in the Events team has completely ruined the morale and several of them are now leaving the company. How can someone have so many similar negative reviews and the HR and the Board have still not done anything about it. The remaining Executive team members are just checked out with no clear strategy or direction. Pierre wakes up one day and comes up with a new abbreviation which becomes the strategy for the year. I have seen the company be ruined by the last 3 CEOs now. Is the company so incapable of hiring good leaders?
