Pros

The office was modern and stylish and the kitchen was always freshly stocked with drinks, snacks and fresh fruit. The company closed its LA offices and provided decent severance packages to most employees. They provided some shares which have been helpful.

Cons

They allow management the freedom to treat their subordinated in an unkind manner as long as they are producing profits. A blind eye is often turned to bad behavior by senior management. They don't seem to want to truly deal with HR problems, they only have time for profit. Barely a slap on the wrist at most is offered to abusive bosses. The management's handling of the Covid 19 pandemic was bumbling and disorganized at best. It made little actual sense much of the time. They had an ignorant old school "oh you'll be fine" approach that wasn't appreciated by much of the staff. They forced people into the office during infection spikes. The closures did not follow the current science, it was more about how the people at the top "felt it would look" to have bodies back in the office. It is absolutely an Old Boy's Club and can be very difficult for some others to break through. They could use several required DEI management training courses in addition to some fresh blood at the top.

Pros

Benefits, salaries, travel opportunities depending on your role. I think managers genuinely care, but they just have such a lack of experience.

Cons

Confused, lack of knowledge and infrastructure and experience to handle such a large portfolio so quick.
