Pros

Great people and working environment. Work with some smart people that enjoy technology and want to make an impact. Direct management cares about your success and you as a person, very positive and engaging. The company is successful and the benefits are fantastic. I feel like I can maintain a healthy work life balance here. Technology stacks are modern and we are encouraged to try new things and new ways of thinking. You can make time to try new things.

Cons

Working from home got stepped down from what it once was which feels like we arent trusted if we can't be seen. For a company that invests heavily in video and communication we seem to not embrace a remote or global workforce. I've stopped recommending working in IT or at least IT Operations to any friends or peers as the culture continues to decline steadily over the past few years. The last VP made some poor hiring decisions for his team of directors and let the problems fester out there and continue to be troublesome. It is not terribly impactful if you avoid interaction but your leadership chain should help you succeed and not complain, criticize, and tear down. It can be hard to feel like what you do matters if your director or vp doesn't seem to care.

Thank you. I'm not sure why working from home became more limited or if it has only been limited in a particular department within IT. Typically, the ability to work from home depends somewhat on the nature of your responsibilities and the impact it will have on others. I will share this and thank you again.

Pros

Remote work was nice. Pay and benefits were decent.

Cons

- Toxic, toxic, toxic - Zero work life balance - Lots of back stabbing going on. Too many management changes. Everyone has to claw for things in a negative way to get anywhere. - Bro culture and a company founder who prays and preaches at company meetings? That should NEVER happen. - No inclusivity. They say DEI is important but when the leaders are praying and seemingly right wing that doesn't reflect. - "Great Place to Work" is a total scam. They basically make you do it, talk about it constantly, remind you to take the surveys, even say how to rate. It's disingenuous. - Over-worked and ran PM's too thin, then when you get too burned out to do your job effectively you're not supported. I was running multiple projects during the day and had another project that required 12 am, 2am meetings as it was an Asian customer. I had no balance, no sleep, zero support. Instead of mitigating it, they wrote me up because I forgot something trivial (so trivial I don't even remember what it was). I was so stressed my hair literally fell out! I was so grateful to have another company headhunt me so that I could quit. TOXIC!
