Pros

The camaraderie of the Minneapolis office folks is truly amazing. Everyone sticks together and supports one another among the small number of people that come into the office regularly. The benefits are good as a single person, and I've heard they're pretty decent for families too. Our onsite kitchen staff is second to none. Truly the most caring and giving of people. Middle management is filled with great leaders that work hard to keep their teams motivated and engaged.

Cons

Where to begin? There's rampant cronyism among the leadership ranks, hiring and promoting executive leadership based on their relationship with the CEO. Cost of living raises were denied for this year, noting the economic downturn, yet suspiciously, the HR department all received promotions. Leadership can't determine if we're a "marketing performance" company or if we're an "inclusivity" company, and while we have that identity crisis, let's go after Artificial Intelligence, too! The constant shifting of strategic priorities is enough to give someone whiplash. I'm sure there are plenty of resources (LinkedIn, Glassdoor, etc.) that can show the downward spiral of employment. Much of that is from employees departing of their own accord, but also, there are layoffs nearly weekly at this point. Leadership will say that they've done all the cuts they need, and the very next week, 5 more people are let go. Actions speak louder than words. Leadership gaslights employees, telling us that we don't understand transparency when we ask for context behind the continued layoffs, or complain of a vocal minority that is "ruining" the culture. Employee engagement surveys show the number of dissatisfied employees is far from a minority. But that doesn't sell well on LinkedIn. #GrowThriveBelong #WatchUsGrow If the economy were in a better place, I think the attrition numbers would be even higher for Siteimprove. You know it's bad when you talk with colleagues after a layoff and they say that they wish they were fired instead of their closest work friends. Since the leadership transition in 2021, I know of several employees that have had mental health crises, onset of eating disorders, smoking/drinking addiction relapses, and persistent anxiety, some of which has manifested into physical ailments. If you're reading this and are considering working for Siteimprove, do yourself a favor, and don't apply/withdraw your application. I have no doubt that you'd be a great colleague, but it's not worth sacrificing your well-being.
