Pros

Here you will meet many incredible people that make it a place to want to continue to work in, this is the best part of the job There is a lot of ability to move into different departments and roles laterally

Cons

So much has changed (for the worst) in the last 3 years. There are some great managers and some REALLY bad ones… sometimes you get lucky, sometimes you don’t Flexibility is becoming more and more narrow. It used to be really flexible schedule wise, now they track your every move and remain vague about any details to keep you on your toes. They also are slowly increasing the days required in so it’s not even a strong benefit compared to lots of other companies that require less days or have full remote options The office culture used to be so fun and more family oriented (there are still some great people here but overall even the good ones have had their morale squashed). It’s become a very negative place in terms of office culture Upper management is probably the worst. There is no clear direction, quarterly reorgs have become “normal”, and they play with jobs like it’s Monopoly money If you are looking for a decent salary, best to look elsewhere. Benefits are also on par with a lot of other organizations if not worse now There is also zero training or proper onboarding to the job so good luck figuring out what you are supposed to do It’s really all a mess and it’s sad because I used to love working here

Pros

- Work life balance - Multi-cultural and international environment - Strong DEI culture - Intellectually stimulating (always learning) - Mobility to move internally

Cons

Used to be a great company to work for, however it has been on a decline. Senior Mgt has no leadership and a serious lack of mid to long term vision to lead the company and people with confidence. Leadership has a very short term and myopic view, creates uncertainty and instil no confidence in staff. Execs are running their own agendas and decisions seem to be solely made and executed on a whim without proper consultation and thought to people working hard on the ground. There is a lack of basic understanding of financials to properly run a company. If certain depts are not following their intended job scope and if this is not reflected in the KPIs to drive revenue, then is it a shock that we do not meet our expected target? Answer is simple and it baffles me that senior execs can’t seem to understand this. Listen to our customers and what they really need - we don’t need incentives to drum up adoption and usage if we address their needs. Customers will automatically engage with us without incentives to entice them. A company can only succeed and thrive because of the people. If the execs are sitting at their ivory towers not willing to listen to the ground and do not want to be honest that they may have made mistakes in their decisions then it is only going to be a slow death. I am heartbroken to see a company that I once took pride in working for to slowly fade away. It is still not too late to listen to honest opinions and feedback from the ground and rectify certain decisions.

Good medical coverage. Dependent covered.

Middle tier management that are too incompentent. Bootlicking happening to earn higher appraisal. Chapter Lead that is not subject matter expert and lack of in depth knowledge - Still thinking they command people to work.
