Pros

Good benefits, but these have diminished now as earnings decrease

Cons

Staff are not empowered or encouraged, limited development opportunities, moral and treatment of staff that have been employed for over 10 years is poor. As a manager I was told what ratings to give my staff and had no say in the matter. I was told to give some of my staff poor reviews to save the company money rather than accurately accounting for their success. Large exodus of talent and experienced staff will likely cause critical compliance issues to arise soon.

Pros

Work from home flexibility and the summer and winter shutdown periods are a nice benefit. Good health insurance.

Cons

Management style can be controlling and micromanaging with expectations that shift without clear communication. Employees are held to high standards but not always given the support or clarity needed to meet them. Performance concerns are documented quickly without full context being considered. Culture does not match the company’s public image.
