    Run fast and do not pass go!

    Mar 23, 2023 - Accounting 
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    The pay is decent, but probably less than you could make elsewhere.

    Cons

    Huge layoffs in February 2023, and there’s no clear vision if the PE firm will sell off other pieces of the business leading to more layoffs. In accounting, we can’t even have basic access to MS word/excel without special approval even though that’s one of our largest customers. No plans to backfill any positions of people who left recently, so you’re expected to work 16 hour days consistently and not ask questions.
