Pros

There has been an influx of positive reviews in the last week. It very suspicious since there hasn’t been that many in the last 6 months but suddenly executives are posting reviews. West is currently going thru a restructuring and laying off people left and right. There have been hundreds laid off don’t believe these reviews from the last week.

Cons

Terrible company and Apollo group is running it into the ground. Tons of layoffs and they have almost zero direction. They are just trying to bleed the company so they can try and sell it.

Pros

Direct manager was great. Lots of freedom as long as you get your work done. Industry leading time off (for now). Those with talent are promoted. Almost everyone outside of corporate West are great people that really care.

Cons

I worked at Intrado for about 8 years. In that amount of time I struggle to come up with a single thing that has improved. Ever since West and Apollo took over they have slowly bled the company dry. 401k basically cut in half, PTO rebranded as vacation/sick so they don't have to pay it out when you quit or get laid off. Consistent layoffs to teams that are already extremely short staffed. There is a huge disconnect between folks working in the Longmont office and corporate. Corporate acts as overlords and we were all just along for the ride. Pay is laughably low considering being located in one of the most expensive counties in the country. It's a shame that West/Apollo has turned legacy Intrado into what it is today. People quitting in bunches and for good reason. Lots more hanging on, hoping that an eventual sale will make things better.

Pros

Not many pros left since the company privatized. Some positions pay a decent salary.

Cons

Benefits have been significantly reduced. Culture has been thrown out the window. There’s little guidance and communication is vague. Financial results are not being shared. Annual goals continue to shift late into the year. There’s no thoughtful, purposeful, or strategic direction. Back office functions are being eliminated leaving the organization without proper support.
