Pros

The teammates are very helpful.

Cons

Cubic is owned by Private Equity, and they have been employing a lot of cost cutting such as multiple rounds of layoffs, removing benefits like the $850 annual Lifestyle spending account, no more free EV charging (due to selling the property and doing a leaseback, so the new owners now charge employees for EV charging), and getting rid of the 9/80 schedule. They are also planning on implementing staggered shifts so instead of employees coming in to the office 8a-5p, different employees would come in at different times of the day.

Pros

My manager was awesome. Job was diverse and creativity was welcomed. Salary was pretty good, even if I was technically doing two types of positions. Co-workers were also good, some great, actually. Work life balance was also pretty good. All credit to that goes to my manager and the managers I've had before my last one.

Cons

In the end, my loyalty seemed to not be valued. My hard work showed and I met deadlines before the due date. Only called in sick when actually sick, and hardly took time off. The thing that bothered me the most was the way they laid me off. Group Teams video meeting, but the person giving us the news was not on video. Just a black screen, telling you that was your last day and that after that meeting your access will be cut off. And it was. I almost felt like an email would've been better than that black screen. That is really the only time I felt bad about the way things went. I know corporate life brings in the usual fiscal year layoffs, but it just felt wrong the way it was done, in my opinion.
