Pros

Met some great people while working there.

Cons

Leadership gave false hope of support. Did not provide clear communication concerning role and tasks. Leadership for eLearning did not promote team atmosphere. Leadership does not live up to the company core values.

Pros

Good place to grow if you’re willing to put in the work. Opportunities for career growth and a pension if you can make it to 5 years. I also built some really great relationships there.

Cons

Work-life "integration" is basically nonexistent. Constant fire drills lead to long hours, nights and weekends. Leadership feels pretty disconnected from day-to-day teams. Frequent layoffs and reorgs hurt morale and leave teams scrambling, and pay tends to stagnate over time.
