Pros

Frankly, the people who made simplicity prior to simplicity, I enjoyed.

Cons

Leadership promotes a toxic, fear-driven culture. “One Simplicity” is a marketing slogan, not a reality. No real collaboration—silos and favoritism run deep. Employee input is ignored unless it fits the agenda. Constant reorgs with no clear direction or value alignment.

Pros

The best company culture ever. Entrepreneurial with the resources of a national organization. Career opportunities are almost limitless. People first culture throughout.

Cons

VERY fast paced environment; Most see it as a pro, but have to be ready for an extremely fast pace and self management (everyone is treated as a professional to execute).

Pros

None (unless you like being in an office)

Cons

Where to begin.. -overworked with little training (you have to ask for it) -absolutely no communication between management. One person says one thing, the other one says something different -in office with little to no remote days when other companies give choices -biting off more than they can chew. So many partnerships with little amount of staff -hardly have employee retention. They're not competitive enough -can't get promoted to bigger roles without a massive amount of traveling everywhere which leaves very little room for your personal life -managers are always in meetings or traveling which leaves employees with little support when they need help
