Great Company and Culture

Recommend

Pros

It might be limited to the team I'm assigned to, but the culture is really wonderful. They encourage work/life balance. We all have mutual respect and trust; because of that, our team really excels. Really incredible team and there's no dead weight -- everyone really puts in 100%. I have had some really bad experiences in my past employment, and this is such a breath of fresh air.

Cons

It's hard to get a hold of someone in HR to ask about benefits and other things. You are directed to some video or read a document instead of one-on-one help. Same for being trained on their tech and systems-- documents and videos. If you are looking for fully remote (which they offer) and you're local BE SURE TO PUT IT IN YOUR CONTRACT UPON HIRE. It's hard to backpedal on that, and I wish I had requested it to be written when I accepted. Travel can be arduous

Pros

It is relatively gigantic and generally hits its aggregate target, across a number of brands. Some group Companies are genuine leaders, that some are under invested and not doing so well is kind of masked by aggregate numbers.

Cons

I found that it is quite an easy place to exist, being considerate of employees existence, they invest more in giving the appearance of being innovative than telling each other the truth about the challenges they face. Probably insufficient outside inspection by those who don't mind telling the truth to bosses who impact their future. More than one senior appointment from outside were mates with the leadership. Not necessarily a problem but good people give up and leave if it is a regular thing.

Pros

Paying job... can’t think of what else I got out of my time there besides lots of frustration.

Cons

Non-existent HR and management, no accountability for “long-termers,” don’t expect any guidance, growth or morale from this company. Methods are very outdated and I’m unsure where these teams are that are so appreciated and rewarded as you’ll hear on long-winded calls because mine was nothing short of the worst team I have ever worked on for the worst company. And oh yeah, I have never worked for another company that allows office theft, charges benefits premiums that they won’t prorate, and will not deduct for local taxes. Just horrible, horrible HR. There’s no “human” in them.
