Pros
Many of my colleagues were both kind and exceptionally dedicated. During my time with the company, I observed several instances of internal promotions, which reflected a commitment to recognizing and advancing talent from within.
Cons
The executive leadership lacks stability and direction — the absence of a CFO for over a year highlights serious organizational issues. The C-suite often prioritizes control over collaboration, focusing heavily on criticism rather than support. While they claim not to lead with fear, that’s largely what employees experience. Empathy is discouraged, and personal challenges are expected to be left at the door. Promotions are sometimes used to manage poor behavior rather than reward merit, and some competent employees have been replaced by associates of leadership, raising concerns about favoritism. Co-workers witnessed instances where I was treated unfairly, but there was no safe or effective channel to report these concerns. The environment feels increasingly toxic, with high turnover, minimal financial rewards (e.g., 1% bonus), and rising benefit costs contributing to widespread dissatisfaction.
