Pros
1. Good Benefits: Decent benefits for its full-time employees. 2. Reputation: It used to be recognized as an outstanding workplace so they may be able to ride that wave for a couple more years. 3. Clear Salary Ranges: Salary ranges are transparent up to the director level, offering clarity on compensation.
Cons
1. Lack of work-life balance: Salaried employees are expected to work 45-60 hours per week, which makes it challenging for AVPs and Directors to retain high-quality staff. 2. High turnover: The company has a huge turnover rate, as seen in their job postings where the number of employees never seems to increase. This leads to a lack of historical knowledge and reinvented processes with every staff change. 3. Understaffing: Teams are consistently understaffed, leading to high stress and burnout. 4. Favouritism and backstabbing: Vice Presidents show favouritism, creating a toxic work environment. 5. Lack of support and empathy: The work environment is highly stressful, competitive, and lacks support. 6. Outdated offices: The office environment and equipment are outdated, contributing to a less appealing work atmosphere. 7. Avoidance of negative news: Vice Presidents only want to hear good news from their teams, causing teams to bury negative information. This leads to inaccurate metrics and misinformed decision-making. 8. Lack of professional development: They truly believe that LinkedIn is a legitimate place to get training.
