Pros

compensation and benefits are great, that's about it

Cons

CEO Leslie Hale is not qualified to be CEO. Two years ago, RLJ perform a culture survey and assessment and 9/10 employees did NOT approve of Hale. Certain members of Senior Management are low performers and their subordinates are better than them. The top performers leave RLJ within a couple of years because their contributions are not appreciated and they realize they are better than their bosses. RLJ is a revolving door of employees.

Pros

Reasonable hours, no health insurance premiums, monthly catered lunch

Cons

I've never felt so infantilized before in a workplace. Expectations include sitting at your desk with nothing to do and waiting for hours on end for a menial assignment from senior management. Independent work does not exist. Visibility is more highly valued than efficiency and information is heavily siloed between groups. I was actively discouraged by my manager from making suggestions or forming professional connections with employees on other teams. More than 20 employees left in 2024, and in the past three weeks both the CFO and General Counsel have resigned.
