Hello, Thank you so much for taking the time to submit your thought-through and balanced review. Firstly, really glad to see you were pleased with the work atmosphere, as well as the career mobility and advancement opportunities. Those are extremely important to us, and hearing this feedback is a great confirmation of our efforts in this area. On the other points raised - thank you for bringing this to our attention. It's particularly disappointing to see that you felt a lack of training, especially as this is another area that we invest in very strongly. There is a lot of training going on, however we do recognise we need to do a better job in raising the awareness and visibility around this, so that it's more accessible to all our employees. It's a point well made and indeed noted. Again - really appreciate your feedback here! Best, HR

Pros

Smart, hardworking people at the individual contributor level (many of whom are now gone). Little micro-managing, but that’s because everyone’s bandwidth is near 0

Cons

Post–new CEO, the company has descended into complete chaos. There is no transparency around decisions that impact teams and roles. There have been consistent strategy, personnel, and supplier changes with no explanation, accountability, or follow-through. Cons, continued: Employee input and performance do not matter. Decisions feel driven by appeasing BoD and optics rather than results, input and reality. The culture has become a corporate hellscape of: Endless reorganizations with no clear rationale, including layoffs with no reasoning Vague all-hands meetings that avoid real issues, even when directly asked A massive disconnect between the C-suite and day-to-day reality Eroded trust and growing position insecurity Middle managers incentivized to prioritize managing up & executive optics over team advocacy “Return to Office” policy put in place when promised a “Work from Anywhere” position, where the RTO policy differs across employees’ location Little to no growth opportunities despite high performance Under-market average compensation that was justified by locale, “Work from Anywhere”, and flexibility — which was recently rolled back A clear favoritism to those that “talk the talk” vs “performance with numbers”
