Pros

Co-workers, fun environment, great onsight family activities

Cons

Terrible attendance policy alloting for only 5 call-ins during a rolling 12 month period does not allow for unforseen life happenings. Recent changes to the policy were supposedly to align with other centers throughout the world which I believe to be a outright lie. A simple search on EU labor laws found that US employees are allowed far less time off with no annual vacation days. Sick time must be accrued starting at the beginning of each year leaving no room for getting sick during winter, a time most people are apt to becoming ill. As it stands an employee cannot call-in for being legitimately sick until sometime in April of each year. Once a manager actually told their employees that while he understands things happen, but we should try avoid anything happening during our work days. This is especially insulting coming from someone not personally affected by the policy. Process policies are changed frequently with little to no notice and offer no grace period to ensure employees understand and are implementing the changes correctly. Advancement is based on who you know not your abilities.

Pros

Great people, smart people. With new CEO, maybe things will get back

Cons

Been a horrible last 3 years. Non-stop re-offs, new leadership that cut everyone and brought in new people who don’t know anything. No clear priorities, no leadership.
