Pros
A lot of intelligent people with diverse work experiences.
Cons
As a salaried employee you are expected to go above and beyond, often working overtime hours without any benefit, financial or otherwise. The more you give the more they expect from you. Year over year, the company continues the “make their numbers” yet bonuses have been eliminated. The company keeps asking for more without offering anything in return. Employees are expected to be online and responsive well past traditional working hours. Being overworked is often worn as a badge of honor but the individuals elevated to be people leaders just want to keep people in their place, not grow a career or look out for the well-being of their reports. Leadership is chaotic, often quickly reacting, implementing plans without understanding or thinking through the implications. Recently, and rightfully so, there is an intensifying mentality at the company to put in minimal amounts of effort and simply skate by because there is no reward or benefit to the company doing well or making its numbers. The work is interesting, but to be an employee in the current culture…simply said… the juice isn’t worth the squeeze.
