Pros

PTO and PFL are okay.

Cons

It’s become increasingly obvious over the past couple of months that senior leadership is completely disconnected from the realities of the business. After five years of successful remote work, during which we consistently received praise for our collaboration and performance, they’re now abruptly forcing everyone back into the office under the guise of “enhancing collaboration.” It's either a RIF in disguise, or a poor decision. This shift appears to be less about productivity and more about justifying poor real estate decisions, specifically, the purchase of a second building that now sits unused. Instead of owning the mistake, leadership is choosing to penalize employees who’ve been delivering results remotely for half a decade. It feels like we’re being dragged back into the office to make their financial missteps look better on paper. Morale is slipping, and trust in leadership is fading fast.

RTO is killing morale

Pros

Interesting work, pretty good pay and benefits

Cons

They are making us RTO 2 days a week for the sake of "productivity" or "collaboration" (or whatever they're calling it) if we live near Reston. People who were hired during covid that are remote don't have to RTO or come in on any schedule. They're completely exempt. The executives are not doing anything to make it up to the people who have to comply with this..... it's just a huge slap in the face to anyone local. I don't know if anyone from the leadership team reads these, but they should take notice how the last three reviews for this company are now 1 star in light of RTO. No one wants this and there is no need for this - why are we being punished?

Pros

Mid Size company with little to no competition in the market. Stable revenue and people stay on the average of 20 years.

Cons

Everything needs to be approved by legal from marketing materials and contracts. In addition, the executive leadership team approves everything. The company is very risk adverse and they focus on the domain business and no so much on the other depts
