Difficult transformation and turnover

Pros

There weren’t many, but an occasional good team member on your team. Diverse on paper but not inclusive.

Cons

Too many. Company went through a very difficult transformation and made everyone’s jobs very difficult. It exposed all of the existing problems, built the great wall of silos, without a path forward. Morale is low everywhere. High employee and customer churn, gossip, strong people leave. They were acquired by WM, and time will tell if WM can correct all of the issues —they let go most of the sales leadership or they left, strong operators left over the years, leading to a diluted talent pool and culture of mediocrity. Because of the experience, I cannot in good faith recommend this workplace to any candidate that wants to know what working in a healthy, competitive, and leading environment is like. It’s not here.

Pros

Flexibility began work and home life

Cons

The clandestine demotion of multiple departments, coupled with subsequent dissimulation and gaslighting when confronted, is an untenable situation. The egregious violations of federal wage laws, HIPAA regulations, and instances of retaliation, obstruction of career progression, and both micro- and macro-aggressions faced by employees are deeply concerning and have been exacerbated by current management. Feckless leadership micromanaging without knowledge of work being performed
