Pros
- Unlimited PTO ( except management will require staff to work extra hours to prepare for it so it’s basically a wash).
- Pizza/taco parties rather than pay raises
- Lax in-office dress code.
Cons
- Core values are performative; as are management’s requests for feedback. Both are used as weapons against staff and as a litmus test for those employees getting ready to leave.
- Company culture is relentlessly pushed on employees, with empty corporate talk about how much they care without the action to back those claims up.
- Zero work life balance. Endless work demands with no reprieve.
- No job security due to multiple firings and layoffs.
- Indecisive and chaotic leadership leading to poor job security and inefficient messaging.
- Lack of transparency and actions with so-called “anonymous” employee surveys when results are poor.
- Expectation to go “above and beyond” with no additional motivation or compensation.
- Managerial and C Suite downfalls are always blamed on staff. They will never change how things are done, despite appearing to want feedback.
- Pointless mandatory quarterly planning events.
