Excellent People, Unaccountable Management

Business Outlook

Pros

The work is fairly low stress and my coworkers are awesome!

Cons

Corporate makes totally opaque decisions on any number of important issues, including salary, but "won't negotiate" with staff about them. It is incredibly belittling and frustrating to experience!

Pros

Stable company with a good work-life balance, intelligent and skilled employees, and some great perks. Excellent health plan, comfortable offices, generous compensation. Overall a good environment and positive place to work.

Cons

In office days required and increasing. The change in hybrid work policy is disappointing and affects my quality of life. The ability to work from home three days per week was an important factor in my decision to join the company.

HR department needs to take a class in empathy

Business Outlook

Pros

The products and revenue is solid. Overall the marketing team is great.

Cons

If you go to HR for guidance or help, they dismiss your concerns and then tell you to talk to someone else. It's puzzling how a company that has invested so much in HR and "doing the right thing" has a department that is so unempathetic to employees who reach out hoping to have a empathic advocate during a difficult time.
