Pros
Competitive salaries that remain decent compared to industry standards Respect for time off and vacation policies are still maintained Remote work options continue to be available Still positioned in the promising renewable industry sector
Cons
Lost sense of camaraderie that defined the early startup days Diminished collaborative environment, replaced by internal competition Innovation has decreased as risk-taking is no longer encouraged Open-door leadership policy has become mostly symbolic Flat hierarchy has evolved into more rigid management layers Resources have become more constrained with less equitable distribution Recognition for contributions has become scarcer and more political New hires often bring cutthroat mentality that clashes with original culture Mass exodus of veteran employees and founding team members Valuable institutional knowledge is being lost with departing veterans
