Pros

Not mind-blowing benefits "that will make you want to work for them", but just decent benefits. On a positive note: I’ve had the pleasure of working with many talented, collaborative, and hardworking individuals. Like many other reviewers have said, the people are not the problem — it’s management and the direction of the company. It’s just a shame that such great individuals ended up in such a dysfunctional and declining organization.

Cons

Previously, this company looked great on paper — which is why I chose to work here. Unfortunately, the reality became clear shortly after I started. Despite constant talk from management about "future opportunities" and "upcoming growth," those promises were never fulfilled. It was all just talk — a way to keep employees hopeful while the company was struggling financially. Following its acquisition, the company began severely underperforming. Leadership changes became routine, not just at the executive level, but across all departments. The turnover was staggering — far beyond what’s typical for a stable organization. At company-wide meetings, leadership repeatedly painted a false picture of progress and success. Yet, almost immediately after each of these meetings, more layoffs would occur, leaving employees constantly anxious about their future. In my honest opinion, this is no longer the Seagull many once knew and loved. It feels like it’s being run by a single person or a small group making self-serving decisions, with little to no regard for employees. There’s no genuine care, no transparency, and certainly no clear path for career growth. If you're looking for a stable company that values its employees, offers real growth potential, and provides fair compensation and bonuses — this isn't it. What you’ll find instead is a constant headache about whether you’ll even have a job tomorrow. The company has increasingly relied on hiring cheaper labor from South America, and large rounds of layoffs have happened each year for the past three years. It's honestly a “wait and see” situation as to whether the company will even survive much longer — and if it does, it’ll be with a drastically smaller workforce.

Pros

Great team members, individuals at the bottom are what make the company good still.

Cons

Executive leadership is out of touch, tone-deaf, penny pinching our benefits, squeezing us for all we're worth, making our jobs harder and not making the product better in any way. Common modern story of company sold to private equity and now it's no longer a great place to work. Sad.
