Pros

Hybrid Work - 3 days in office.

Cons

I cannot in good conscience advise others to work here, especially for individuals from underrepresented backgrounds or those who value psychological safety, transparency, and fairness. Working at this company was one of the most difficult periods of my professional life. I entered hopeful and eager to contribute, but I quickly found myself in an environment that felt toxic, discriminatory, and demoralizing. I felt unfairly targeted and unsupported which deeply impacted my mental health and ultimately drove me into a depression. Despite trying to advocate for myself and navigate the situation professionally, my concerns were dismissed and minimized. Leadership seemed more invested in maintaining appearances than fostering a healthy, inclusive work culture. The toxicity within my department wasn’t just tolerated, it was modeled and reinforced by leadership. Gossip, exclusion, and cliques were often initiated or encouraged by those in managerial roles, creating a culture where professionalism took a back seat to personal agendas. Rather than setting a tone of integrity and collaboration, leadership encouraged and participated in divisive behavior. This made it incredibly difficult to trust the system or feel safe speaking up. When toxicity starts at the top, it sends a clear message that dysfunction is not only acceptable, but expected. I hope the company takes serious steps toward change, but based on my experience, they probably won’t so it’s best to just not join them in the first place.
