-Pay is good to start (never changes though) -Benefits fully covered for single employees, mostly covered for spouse -Stock is currently up

People are miserable and actively hate each other. Very few people are happy (maybe some engineers?). The rest of us are tired and beat down from constant change, reorgs, and projects that go nowhere. Leadership isn't aligned. VPs scrabble for power. Direction changes. Projects get killed. The cycle repeats. The looks on faces you pass in the hallway say it all. Everyone I talk to is miserable and looking for another job. That may not be the case for all departments, but is certainly isn't an isolated experience. The company cares more about RTO swipes and AI logins than keeping good talent. And they track both weekly. If you fall below an arbitrary percentage (which you're unable to see for yourself) they have reasonable cause to fire you without severance. Which they do often. RTO is currently at 4 days a week and expected to go to 5 any day now. All for a culture of scrambling for conference rooms and sitting in traffic. Whatever you're hired to do, you won't be trusted to do it. If that sounds fun, this is your place! If you're actually good at your job, go somewhere you'll be valued.
