2023 - Cultural Reset

Recommend
CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

The people are great, the research is interesting, and co-workers push you to your intellectual boundaries. Culture is our pièce de résistance and is the key to how we retain employees. However we are currently going through the midst of a cultural revolution.

Cons

In the past few weeks: -The generous PTO plan that rewarded tenure was changed to "flexible" time off -There was an aggressive round of layoffs -Promotions and merit increases were put on hold for the second time in three years -Our highly touted "anywhere work" policy was revoked and we were told to be back in office every Tuesday and Wednesday within two weeks
