Does PIMCO offer family leave?
Pros
Smart experts, great views, good benefits and parental leaves.
Cons
Toxic culture, stagnant leadership mentality, CEO is out of touch, not relatable or engaged with anyone but IPs and partners. HR is not impressive or trustworthy, protects business interests - not employees.
Advice to Management
Be honest and transparent, celebrate diversity. Nice words, speaker series and having a head of diversity position does not mean you celebrate diversity. Work on detoxing your culture. Be innovative. Heads of departments who speak at town halls need to use less business jargon for majority of what they say, they sound stupid.
