Terrible Communication & Management - Anonymous employee Blackhawk Network Employee Review

- terrible pay, removal of bonuses, SOME employees get a 3ish% raise every year - terrible communication from management team - lots of secrecy and smoke & mirrors around the future of jobs at this company - current strategy is firing all US/England talent to hire cheaper in India - "agile company" with a top-down approach - this is not a tech company. this is an acquisition company. the product is not important to the company. - September update: newly locked down computers so employees can't use any software beyond what is approved. Lack of trust. - no opportunities for promotion or growth unless someone above you leaves or gets fired (both very likely in this environment)
