Pros

- Flexibility on schedule if you need to work around kids - So many employees are an absolute joy to work with

Cons

- Leadership is incredibly toxic and fosters an environment of fear while saying they are "empowering you to make decisions." - Gender discrimination. I was told by my manager that we needed to hire a male and not a female for the role when we were interviewing candidates. Not the first time it happened on my team either. - Not a place you can speak out and disagree without fear of repercussions. - Most managers I experienced were micro-managers, responding in my place and circumventing me on my own projects. - Business is built on leadership's opinions rather than insights and data which is why some businesses are failing right now. - Almost every night of the week there are late night calls with overseas partners resulting in massive burnout. Managers say the prioritize employee health and well-being but the push for 24/7 work says otherwise. I worked almost every night until 2-3am because I was told that we needed to move fast and work harder because we are losing market share. - Note: CEO approval rating is not for Rich Stoddardt as he been out of the temp role for a while now. The approval rating is a reflection of Chris C.

Pros

The compensation and benefits package appeared competitive compared to similar roles in the industry. The team members I met during the interview process were generally personable, professional, and knowledgeable about their work. The company also presents itself as collaborative and employee-focused during recruitment.

Cons

The hiring and onboarding process lacked organization, consistency, and internal alignment. Communication between Talent Acquisition, hiring management, and leadership appeared disconnected, resulting in conflicting information regarding fundamental terms of employment. After progressing through multiple interview rounds and receiving both verbal and written offers, critical details surrounding the position’s reporting expectations and work location changed unexpectedly immediately prior to the anticipated start date. The situation was handled poorly, with inconsistent messaging from different parties and limited accountability for the confusion. Attempts to professionally discuss potential solutions and compromises were met with resistance and ultimately resulted in the offer being rescinded. The overall experience reflected a lack of coordination between departments and created significant concern regarding internal communication, leadership alignment, and employee onboarding practices. For a large, established company, the process felt surprisingly unstructured and reactive.
