High stress, little direction.

Pros

Beautiful office, good compensation, free food, free beer, convenient location and lots of company events.

Cons

"Speed wins" is the motto that prevails. Strategic long term planning isn't what is valued. Management often utilizes a tactic of creating false pressure to try to get employees to do more in less time which only seemed to create more stress and less quality. Don't try going to Human Resources for help, very little of what you say stays in confidence.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. You mention in your review that one of your concerns is voicing issues to Human Resources. I apologize that you’ve had a negative experience. Our HR team strives to provide meaningful feedback to the business and improve channels of internal communication. My hope is that we can begin a conversation and build a level of trust between you and the HR team. I believe we’d both benefit from a more in depth discussion, so please feel free to reach out to me directly. I'd welcome the opportunity to meet in person. Beth Grous Chief People Officer

Don't be Fooled by Great Benefits

Pros

The benefits are great, and some of the best I've experienced, and the corporate headquarters is a beautiful and physically nice place to work. If these are most important to you, and you don't mind a hostile, rude and unfriendly work environment, then this is the place for you.

Cons

Experiences/ culture depends on what department you work for, but overall culture is rude, cut-throat, and everyone cares only for themselves. Communication from executives is very vague, and often biased or misleading. Interactions and communications among management and coworkers is rude. Employees are often made to feel stupid, and unfairly put on the spot to be made an example of. Work hours are flexible, but employees are expected to work 24/7. HR does not provide a comfortable forum to bring up and address issues as they are ingrained with management & executive teams.

I appreciate you taking the time to leave your feedback, although it is certainly tough to read that you are so unhappy here. Your experience differs from what I hear from most employees, who tend to speak highly of their coworkers and the work/life balance offered here. We’ve worked hard to build a culture of strong teamwork, and collaboration that aligns with our “better together” philosophy. As your experience seems to reflect otherwise, I’d like to hear more about it and welcome the opportunity to meet you in person. I would encourage you to contact me directly. Thanks again for your comments. Beth Grous Chief People Officer
