Pros

I am conflicted, this company has a great purpose, they offer training luncheons and other opportunities for professional/personal growth. In most departments and even on the macro-level I think this can be a great place to work. At the same time I can't get over my extremely negative experience at Adaptive.

Cons

I concede this individual account may be prone to bias, in my defense FIVE Material Handlers have left (originally a team of 4) in the last 9 months. -In my department, within a week of me being hired I find Material Handler 'A' crying over a negative interaction with another co-worker. Worker 'A' quits within a month of me being hired. -Material Handler B gets hired (as a replacement for Worker A) and inappropriately harasses [suggestive comments toward] Material Handler C. The drama that pursued persisted for my entire time at Adaptive. Included everything from passive aggression to yelling. -Material Handler D gets hired. Worker D is clearly bothered by the supply chain department's culture (inappropriate harassment and negative-relationship between worker B and C) after starting. Material Handler D gets a competitive offer from their previous employer 2 months into working at Adaptive. Worker D quits/accepts offer. -I get fed up and quit in late spring 2020, I lasted only 6 months at this point. When you dread coming into work everyday due to needless drama, and on top of that you have a high-paced stressful job that requires co-worker collaboration, you burn-out quick. -Material Handler B quits/fired shortly after I leave. -Material Handler C (who has plenty to be upset about) quits a month or two later. Mid-summer 2020. The whole team that I started with just imploded.

Pros

Fast paced, innovative, collaborative and flexible

Cons

In transitional years - very much a company that is a maturing start up and running into those predictable barriers that come with that growth.

Pros

Good pay, generous benefits, additional employee welfare options

Cons

The whole department was removed due to company going under. This was within 4 months of employment. I was able to get another job soon but wished they never hired if they were going to cut the workforce by 40%. After that, the company had multiple rounds of layoffs. Very unstable company.
