Pros

Good benefits, ok pay for what it is

Cons

Inflexible, phone system ties you firmly to a desk and schedule. No work instructions for random daily tasks that swamp most employees. Salaried job for hourly work. Turnover is very high. Some internal staff are very rude and condescending. Direct management is ok but some will go as far to track your lunch breaks. Even though it’s a stepping stone job I still find it difficult to pursue internal opportunities. I would not recommend this job to anyone besides a new grad.

Emerson Response

Pros

Great immediate supervisor and their boss. Made top-down communications tolerable. Great co-workers and great collaboration that lifted the entire team.

Cons

(1) RIF based on tenure, not performance. HR is too powerful a department, and everyone fears it. (2) Tenure made you lazy, killed creativity, initiative, and promoted a "yes" culture. (3) During COVID layoffs, CEO pay went from $3.7 million to $15.x million, while employees endured 25% furloughs for 3 months, and management 10% reduction in pay for 6 months - explain how that is reasonable. (4) CEO declared DEI as the way forward for career mobility, and a lot of young, promising talent walked out the door, including DEI-qualified minorities. (5) I was one of those minorities.
