Pros

The people I worked with were some of the best coworkers I've ever had. I still see some of them often.

Cons

Upper management talks the talk but doesn't walk the walk. They talk all the time about questioning the status quo, innovating, wanting to help employees grow etc, but in reality they are very stuck in their processes, are not thinking about the long term growth of employees, and are close minded. Going to lunch as a team monthly does not fix deeper organizational issues. As a side note, they were extremely hesitant to let people work from home at the start of the pandemic, and only relented when higher managers told all employees that they can work from home. When another leader individually asked their employees to work from home, and expressed concern for them, mine sent out a message late at night saying that because they have the bathrooms cleaned nightly and they put up signs to remind people to wash their hands, the office was a safe place. This is an example of the closed-mindedness of management.

Pros

Remote work option is nice to have

Cons

Zero support from management, with employee development and team concerns often taking a back seat to other priorities. Morale continues to go downhill, and several colleagues exploring opportunities elsewhere or leaving the organization already. The culture is challenging, particularly around providing candid feedback, as employees often are tracker down and face negative repercussions and retaliations. Career advancement depends more on aligning with leadership preferences than on merit and performance. Would not recommend this company to those seeking a supportive environment with transparent growth opportunities. Overall, the culture is political and difficult to navigate.
