Condé Nast reviews

Low morale, cattiness, egos, endless layoffs and re-orgs, you never feel safe in your job. No company transparency or room for growth. No one ever knows what's going on. Teams get leaner as more and more people get laid off while upper management keeps their old school, expense account lifestyles.

Since the new Chief Product and Technology Officer came in the decision has been made to open a new third HQ in central/eastern Europe (because cheap labour). Since COVID they've pivoted to now opening an HQ in India. This is great for a multinational company although with hiring being severely restricted even before the pandemic, all new vacancies within the engineering department are being hired in India -- because its cheaper (not the official word, but it's obvious why). With hiring being difficult, it's made back-filling roles in either London or New York impossible. We started getting contractors in but now everyone is being hired in India. Pay is not great. Pay equality is worse. Zero career progression. Don't even bother asking for experience, either. They boast about diversity and inclusion but are extremely and painfully slow following through with action.
