Stand Together reviews

- Prides itself on being a non-partisan company, but I often hear people saying terrible things about Dems or Progressives in the office, especially during election cycles. (This may be a Pro for some, but it is not a pro for me.) - It took me YEARS to receive a raise, and I've never received a holiday bonus, unlike some of my peers who received several raises and yearly bonuses before I ever received my first one. - All in-office work is done through "flex" desks that are effectively owned by people who won't book those desks, but will be at that desk every day. So you can book a free desk, only to come in and find someone at "their" desk. - Initial hiring interviews took over a month. I interviewed with several different groups of people and ended up not even working with most of them. - Some departments are extremely under-funded, and other departments have 3-4 people doing the same job, which can lead to burnout on smaller teams. - While I do understand why someone people might call some of the ideas "cult-like" I don't think it's hard to listen and form your own opinions. Ideas like self-empowerment, self-actualization, openness, and bottom-up empowerment are good in practice, but like other people mentioned, they're rarely actually practiced by others.

Unclear expectations, often too much red tape to move things forward quickly
