Pros

It is beneficial to be a part of the transformation from a Digital aspect as there is much to learn and much to contribute.

Cons

The top leaders within technology are male leaders who have all been hired by the CIO from his last place of employment. There is no safe escalation channel left. The newest Sr leader in Digital only talks and does not listen and acts as an architect vs a leader. He is set on changing to what he knows without understanding the organization and how it is operating today. Many jobs will be cut or eliminated because of his lack of interest in seeking to understand only to make it structured the way he is used to. Penny is amazing and believes culture is the Firm's superpower and the reason for Return to Office, but she is failing to realize these leaders are eliminating the culture for the Firm within Digital.

Pros

- Decent benefits programs. - Teammates who cared about the quality of work they provided and the people they worked with. - Direct superiors who were people of integrity that I respect immensely and wish nothing but the best for.

Cons

- Recent removal of remote work for all associates regardless of how long they had worked remotely previously (13 years in my case). This push to onsite work will damage long term profitability and likely cause a mass exodus of talented associates (if it has not already). - Massive amount of offshore outsourcing that has greatly reduced the quality of work at the home office. - Lack of flexibility regarding work schedules that has severely damaged work-life balance.
