Pros

-Better than market pay (they need it in order to get higher quality people because the wise know better) -Free My-Fit-Food/Snap Kitchen and "Swag"

Cons

- Utter Chaos - Leadership is disjointed and unclear with their expectations - Management keeps wanting to run pointless Fire Drills that are not worth the time for the amount of information produced - Management wants to micro manage but with attrition is unable to handle their micro management capabilities - Everything is always "Extreme Insanity or Die" (CEO's words not mine) - Management is overly militaristic (note the previous comment) - They use Cognos and I am not sure if it is the product or the system managers, but it is slowest tool I've used since AOL DialUp in the 90s - Instead of paying any Employees bonuses or merit increases, the CEO gave himself a 8 figure bonus - DO NOT COUNT ON THE BONUS - IF THIS STILL HASN'T DETERRED YOU, GET IT INCLUDED IN WRITING ON YOUR OFFER LETTER.THAT GUARANTEES A CERTAIN PAYOUT AT A CERTAIN DATE. - Just laid off about 10-15% of the North American labor force - Don't trust the 5 star reviews. They are fakes from HR and other people that were incentivized to do so - For a company that claims to encourage ingenuity, it does everything to stifle that out. - Attrition is horrible. I came to work for a certain manager that hired me because of his vision of "my role", but he left (very wise decision for him) and I was left working for someone else that basically either barked orders or ignores me completely

Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

The company has significant issues that make it difficult to recommend as a long-term workplace. HR support is virtually non-existent, leaving employees without meaningful assistance when concerns arise. Favoritism appears to influence decisions more than performance or merit, creating an unfair work environment. There are very few opportunities for career growth, and many employees find themselves in stagnant roles with little chance for advancement. Even when employees consistently exceed expectations and earn recognition, raises are infrequent or nonexistent, making it difficult to feel valued for hard work. Additionally, there is a noticeable lack of professionalism at the management level. Communication, accountability, and leadership standards need significant improvement. Overall, the company would benefit from investing in stronger leadership, a more effective HR department, and a culture that rewards performance fairly.
