Pros

Flexible with work hours and schedule

Cons

Lack of communication between management and hourly employees doing the actual work. Management and those in supervisory roles need to be re-evaluated as most of them don’t listen to any feedback given and go and do and say what they want without any repercussions. Micromanagement is HIGH. Those with more seniority than you are super condescending. Certain employees get singled out by management and sometimes get embarrassed by said management. Supervisors and management tend to show favoritism to one or two employees and let the rest of us kick dust. Super unprofessional in that aspect. Not a lot of room for growth, no matter how hard you work.

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
