Pros

Strong research/education teams. Passionate/knowledgeable coworkers. Strong internally supporting teams in HR such as L&D, BP's, and Culture & Inclusion. Lots of travel for those who want partner facing opportunities.

Cons

Internal career growth is SLOW - as in it might hold back your career trajectory long term. Management is not interested in paying at appropriate salaries (which many EE's complain about) - which I've been told directly by other senior leaders. Engagement data is rarely, if at all shown or discussed. Burnout is definitely high and seems to happen quickly as we watch new/old teammates come and go.

Pros

Had a history of supporting employee needs (e.g. hybrid)

Cons

- has become obsessed with in-office culture and "being present" (i.e., super limited full remote roles now), would not be surprised if the exec team submits a RTO mandate soon - compensation is under what you should receive, regardless of tenure or level. The amount of work far outpaces your salary. -because of the point above, burnout and a culture of irritability is omnipresent. - do NOT take the senior promotion, it just results in more work (you do multiple smaller projects in addition to your current workload and now lead trainings) and a small pay increase that does not even match inflation. - expectation that less senior staff have to interpret everything, big lack of clarity between need-to-have feedback and preference-edit feedback - instead of annual raises that match inflation, you get to spend full days quarterly with the team talking about topics that have nothing to do with your day-to-day - Management has become very clique-y, good luck moving into management if you're not already a part of the clique (or fully remote) - Unpaid overtime is expected but you will get shamed for not doing everything during the workday. - We currently work with the military and with the police as recruitment strategists so ICE will probably be next
