Business Outlook

Pros

Compensation was fine for the industry.

Cons

Notified I was being laid off at 10 am. Access revoked to computer by noon. No prior notice given, no reason given other than "business performance" and needing to reduce costs. Business strategy is inorganic growth through market monopolization from acquiring competitors. "Diversity initiative" includes hiring white women in non-customer facing roles. No strategy involving sustainability in any impactful, measurable way.
