Pros

Opportunity to connect with many people since it's a large corporation

Cons

Aggressive restructuring and those in power lack skills to manage teams. Disorganized management, late on commissions for sales teams, massive layoffs without warning, etc. You are not taken care of here and you will constantly reminded that you can be replaced immediately. When the CEO was asked what was happening with the layoffs he replied that "people will keep getting fired and that's just how business goes..." which is true, but you don't need to say that to your employees who work for you. There is no team culture or emphasis on collaboration.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts so candidly. We take onboard what you've said. We're sorry to read that your experience has been less than positive. We take the wellbeing of our people very seriously and our CEO and People and Culture team have spent the last 3 years defining the business strategy and vision. Whilst Emerald went through a period of transformation, we've now come out the other side. These changes have made it easier for our people to see how their roles align with this vision.

Pros

-Depending on what team you're on, you get a lot of autonomy. (on the flip side, see con- if you're on the wrong team) -Good benefits -Fun events & Travel opportunities

Cons

-People getting laid off left and right all time. One minute you have a team mate and the next they are just gone. -Management is top heavy and operates like a fraternity -If you're on the wrong team every move is watched -Your job is NEVER safe -Imagine with the acquisition that was just announced by Apollo that the reason for layoffs was to become lean before transition. I would hedge bets that this will also continue to be a numbers game and positions are going to be uncertain -Sales plans are always ambiguous and there were even times where the plan wasn't out until several months into the year. Expected to sell over and above but didn't always have a sales plan to follow. It was always changing.
