Pros

1. Opportunities to lead global, cross-functional projects. 2. Exposure to strategic business initiatives and stale holder engagement 3. Positive collaboration with business unit teams and external partners.

Cons

• Performance evaluation lacked transparency: Longstanding contributions were dismissed without clear feedback or dialogue, and ratings felt disconnected from actual achievements. • Poorly managed offboarding process: Termination occurred with minimal notice and no opportunity for internal transition, raising questions about fairness and respect. • Weak HR and compliance response: Reports of inappropriate or unprofessional behavior by senior leadership were not addressed meaningfully, and follow-ups often felt dismissive. • Cultural disconnect: Company values such as respect and inclusion are not always reflected in leadership behavior or decision-making, especially in times of organizational change.

Pros

Great benefits, hybrid & remote roles, great colleagues to work with. Great vacation /time off. Helpful colleagues

Cons

Reorganizations (roughly 3 years), IT roles dwindling in North America(moving to India), teams can get very silo-ed, “not my role” = not helping you (when you are looking for answers/assistance), currently seeing a lot of movement out of New Jersey (roles moving to other parts of the country), some organizational charts can be confusing, huge organization(can be difficult at times pinpointing the exact team you may need to work with)
