      Not what it once was

      Manager

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      work from home/ hybrid, decent pay and benefits

      Cons

      Senior execs have made several terrible decisions (heck board made a terrible decision hiring Hans, who made MEC a focus, etc.) and company has gone downhill since, with stock and profits as proof to support this. Company seems far more interested in social causes and political correctness than making money for the shareholder. Again, stock price and balance sheet reflect this. Anecdotally, it seems if you don't fit into (or better, not fit) a certain demographic, your career path is greatly limited (as well as your chances of getting a job). Personally, I've experienced times where lesser qualified candidates were given a role over better candidates, and I, myself, was chastised for having a team that was "not minority enough" and instructed by my manager that I *must* hire a female (specifically) next time, even if it took much longer to find a qualified candidate.

      Great benefits, but constantly re-orging and culture suffers because of that

      Program manager

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great benefits - 5 months of maternity leave, 3 months paternity leave. 6% 401k match, LTI incentives and generous bonus based on your level within the company. Starting to get back into in office, but for the most part a hybrid work setup allows for work life balance, as long as you're not a director or above

      Cons

      Directors and above are expected to work tirelessly and do not have work life balance. The culture also is one of 'fear' because layoffs and re-orgs happen so frequently, it's unproductive and detrimental to morale. People are often afraid they're going next. So there is very little challenging leadership above you, based on fear.

      Terrible company. Do not work here.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Pay and benefits are decent but getting worse as years go by.

      Cons

      Schedules are tenure-only based Supervisors are overloaded with too many reps and support is very lacking Operating systems are constantly having issues and the company makes no attempt to improve them. They take advantage of reps who want to progress their careers by only giving them “interim roles” and ultimately no permanent promotion. They raised the minimum wage for new employees but gave no cost of living raise to current employees. They have outsourced many, many departments but do not train the vendor employees properly or pay them a sufficient amount.
