Started out Strong the took a deep dive.
Feb. 24, 2023 - Anonymous EmployeeRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Lots of company events and trying to bring people together. Good inclusivity for different ethnicities and LGBTQ+ people. Had some very supportive management in the beginning and as I moved roles it severely declined.
Cons
Promotion of people who don't seem qualified (very young/not a lot of experience) just because they're friends with the right people, or make themselves look good by undermining their staff instead of helping them. Most employees are overworked and underpaid. They expect you to work a fair amount of hours outside of a normal work day for salary employees with very little compensation. Not a lot of cross training done despite it being brought up numerous times. When you work hard to get processes changed but because management is also understaffed it goes months without any changes happening. Most of the time management has no idea what their underlings do on a day to day basis so when you try and get help it never comes.

- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
Financially stable and has been around for a while.
Cons
There is a lot of friction between the company and union employees, and neither trusts the other. The company talks about it's values and has put a lot of thought into them, however there is little enforcement of those values. Job security, better treatment, and competitive compensation seem to apply only to Sales people.
