Pros

Good coworkers and direct manager is terrific. Was once fully remote but plans to switch to hybrid.

Cons

-Poor senior leadership. Decision making and communication of changes has been terrible over the last several months. - Just last year, the company had employees complete a survey on “how they like to work”. Employees given the ability to be fully remote, hybrid, or work from office. They made it seem that this would be permanent, and attracted a lot of talent this way. However they recently announced a requirement to be in the office three days a week. There was no good reasoning provided for why this decision was made, so unless they smarten up and adjust this mandate they will need to prepare for many employees to leave, which will add to stress and workload, which equals even more attrition.

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.
