Pros

Coworkers (not managers) and benefits are decent

Cons

I’ve heard great things about other departments but I would not recommend working in ALR. It is a toxic work environment where finger pointing, blaming and throwing others under the bus to get promoted is encouraged. Constantly taking on new clients and adding job responsibilities to existing employees without any increased pay or promotion. Little to no feedback provided in between 6 month reviews so prepare to be blindsided. Not uncommon to work until midnight on things that aren’t even part of your job description only to be told you’re underperforming. Zero professional development in my years of working here, nor have I seen anyone else from my department be promoted but somehow those above us have been promoted 2-3 times in the same time period.

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
