Great potential, great strategy and CEO, but department level culture is drastically different and largely poor

Don’t execute on what we say we do when it comes to employee compensation, recognition, speaking up and continues to promote and protect known terrible leaders

Pros

Pay is on time Decent benefits after 30 days Good PTO and 401(k) You probably won’t get fired

Cons

The public image and internal reality are not the same. Leadership talks about ethics and fairness but doesn’t walk the talk. Decisions are biased, and HR acts more like PR than support. Job roles and titles are often changed after hiring. What you’re told during interviews may not match what you actually do — or get paid for. Growth is almost nonexistent unless you're in Tampa. If you're remote or in a satellite office, expect to be sidelined. High performers are overlooked. Raises are capped. Evaluations are rubber-stamped. Doesn’t matter how hard you work — you’ll get the same rating as someone doing the bare minimum. Toxic culture is ignored. Complaints about leadership go nowhere. HR is unresponsive unless it’s about image issues. Ethics complaints pile up with no follow-through. You’ll likely be doing the work of multiple people due to turnover. Training is minimal, support is weak, and burnout is common.
