Pros
Great culture- everyone gets along well and we truly feel like friends. Good work life balance- an 8 hour workday is respected and taking truly unplugged time off is the norm. Good healthcare benefits
Cons
I unfortunately had to leave Wellington due to low pay. It is truly a shame because I loved working there, but with the current cost of living, I needed to make more to get ahead. I had been hanging on because of the three days in office flexibility, but once they took that away and required us to come in four days a week, I started making exit plans as most 4 day in office jobs in this industry pay at least 50-75% more than Wellington. When I joined Wellington several years ago, I was told that the job stability was excellent and there were never layoffs. Unfortunately, this proved to not be true as there were at least 3 separate instances of layoffs during my time at the firm. Finally, the firm talks about meritocracy and transparency, but neither of those things are actually true in practice. The people who are promoted are the ones who present the most obedient image, and performance is not taken into consideration. As far as transparency goes, every message from upper management in the past 2 or so years was complete gibberish.
