Pros

Good benefits Individual Contributors are incredibly hard working and very passionate about their jobs and our customers

Cons

Constant mass layoffs leaves everyone fearful for job security and unknown if they will be next. Too much AI usage. Nothing feels authentic anymore. Constant restructuring and for some reason leadership keeps changing direction each month, it seems. It gets overwhelming trying to keep up with the changes. Not to mention every department is so understaffed, employee morale has been severely affected. It’s a constant state of stress with the feeling of no light at the end of the tunnel. Management and leadership say there is a light coming, and to give it time, but it’s been years and nothing has changed. There’s no recognition for hard work and no bonuses. They say there are bonuses, but not sure how true that is. The harder you work, the only thing you get is burnout and more work thrown on your plate because you prove to be a hard worker. But in the end, regardless if you are an overachiever or do the bare minimum, everyone gets the same 3% raise. Why work harder if we all get the same raise in the end? Pay is low. Promotions get promised, but then the opportunities never come to light. So you’re constantly overworking yourself for the empty promises. Some managers seem to have a double standard, being harsher with their hard working employees and showing more favoritism towards employees who don’t want to do more than the bare minimum.

Shiny office can't hide negative undercurrents

Pros

-- I love my team members -- Free snacks, 321 Coffee -- The woman at the reception office is amazing, friendly, and greets every contractor and employee by name like they are Norm from Cheers... she truly makes you feel special even though you are just 1 of several hundred people in the building.

Cons

-- open office space with no assigned desks so you have to schlep 20 pounds of stuff every day -- 30 out of 90 days "hybrid" schedule sounds flexible until you realize that after deducting weekends, holidays, PTO, etc, it is more like 3-4 days / week in office. -- they actively count your badge swipes and send out public progress reports to count how many days you have come into the office and name and shame who is not coming into the office enough -- increasingly relying on contractors instead of FTEs and contractors are excluded from a lot of meetings and given no feedback -- everyone is living in fear of the next round of layoffs -- agile teams are very competitive and territorial and pitted against each other -- expectation to show up in the office but you're still always on a TEAMS call which defeats the purpose of in-person "collaboration" -- turf wars and politics and hoarding of knowledge by some people. -- unlimited PTO but only if you have enough badge swipes to get your quota of in-office days in.

Terrible Senior Leadership

Recommend

Pros

ICs and mid-level managers are usually very intelligent, hard working, and kind.

Cons

I have worked in corporate settings for almost 25 years, and this is the worst leadership team I have ever seen. They are elitist and completely out of touch with market, consumer, and workforce realities. They do not make plans and strategies based on actual data and consumer research but on their own “intuition,” and any employee who points out problems and flaws is retaliated against. It’s gotten to the point that mid-level managers regularly tell their employees not to bring up problems they are experiencing or concerns they have in meetings with senior leadership because the retaliation is so severe, and they want to protect their employees. The company has had a negative eNPS for the last two years, and leadership pawns it off by saying our eNPS is low because the employees don’t understand the questions on the survey. They do a round of layoffs almost every quarter, restructure constantly, and change priorities frequently, so it is very difficult for the remaining employees to be effective in their roles.
