Pros

Great people, good health insurance

Cons

High workload, high expectations from management, feedback about performance I received once a year during Performance Base Management (evaluation) session, which is too late to work on improvements or re-setting priorities. Communication on important decisions is delayed and is not proactive so there is room for gossip, meanwhile it is expected that people in the service organisation are extremely responsive and proactive.. If you work really well you will be awarded with more work. Unfortunately limitations within roles and responsibilities are very vague and requires a review.

Pros

Some good people and good location around Boston area.

Cons

Cabot did not feel like an employee-focused company during my time there. I observed multiple layoffs, including employees who had been hired only a few months earlier. The work environment was often very stressful, with heavy workloads and frequent organizational changes. Communication across different management layers was sometimes inconsistent, leading to mixed messages and unclear priorities. Before accepting a position, I would encourage candidates to carefully evaluate the role, team, and long-term stability of the organization. Significant changes can occur quickly, and it's important to understand the potential impact on work-life balance and career plans.
