Pros

Benefits are good for now

Cons

It's not about entitlement. Many people accepted the mandate to return to office 3 days a week or you auto-resign. Many of those people were laid off. The most egregious breach of trust was converting employees that signed contracts as remote workers to hybrid and forcing them to drive to an office if they live within 50 miles of it. All so they could sit on video calls because the teams aren't centralized anyway. The culture is dead. It's a bunch of ex-consultants doing the bidding of the private equity that owns them trying to get to an IPO or sale. There are still good people working there, but they're interviewing elsewhere. Managers and Directors were having to do the work of ICs because they just wouldn't replace ICs that left. People are not motivated. People are pushing back about going to the office because they just don't care about this place. Everyone has one foot out the door waiting for the tech hiring landscape to settle down.

Pros

Working from home and the benefits are okay, but not really any different from those in most other organizations.

Cons

Too many managers are ill-informed about how much work there is to complete. Too many meetings pull employees away from work, yet they are chastised for work-life balance. I do not want to miss a deadline, so I work extra hours but don't report them. Processes seem to change daily. People-first is all but forgotten. Customer service is the unsung hero, carrying the weight of the world but often overlooked. Unrealistic classroom times leave little to no time for Q&A. There are manager pets and clicks in the organization. "Ohana" (meaning Family) is a joke. Do not share innovations with others; they are often stolen by others who will take accolades and credit for themselves. There are egotistical managers who could use a lesson in humility. Growth is nearly impossible. Personal review is a waste of my time. The manager is going to override my ratings with their own. Just give me my review and let's get on with it. It's been all downhill since the merge. Layoffs are a constant worry.
