Pros

New CEO has really inspired a lot of people at FADV to give it their all again. HR and management seem to be listening as we're seeing some positive movement from our first-ever engagement survey (particularly around performance reviews). At least in our department, work-life balance is encouraged and we have a lot of flexibility around working from home, etc.

Cons

Benefits are too expensive. Performance management is NON-EXISTENT. We have WAY too many EVP/SVP/VP titles around here. Honestly, it's a bit crazy for a company of our size. Company is owned by Private Equity, who (like every other PE company) are only in it for the money and don't care about the people here.
