Pros
The pay and benefits are good, my colleagues are a joy to work with and are really sharp, great perks, lunch is catered every day.
Cons
Middle management used to be good but are becoming more and more disconnected, leaving you hopeless. I have no idea what’s going on at the executive level. Morale is the lowest I’ve seen. Very unclear promotion and performance rating processes. Everyone is rated on a 1-5 bell curve every year that directly correlates with your annual bonus and promotion opportunities, which sounds logical but the problem is we have zero guidance on how to achieve a high rating. It’s a roll of the dice every year. We’re literally required to put our entire year’s worth of accomplishments onto a single slide deck that gets sent to upper management and is used to assign you an annual rating. We acquire companies and don’t seem to know what to do with them. I don’t even want to know how much debt this company has.
