Cons

Everyone on Glassdoor talks about the 9/80 schedule and how it promotes a work life balance, but working 10 hour days is exhausting. When you have the Friday off, you want nothing more than to sleep. The employees are content doing minimal work just to get a paycheck No one gets fired for underperforming too many people that have been there for years that are hogging up space There also isn't enough work to keep employees busy I don't know why they keep hiring and hiring when there isn't enough work to go around.

Pros

Not much pros but talented coworkers.

Cons

I joined expecting a long-term career and initially had a positive experience. Unfortunately, the culture changed significantly after leadership transitions. Micromanagement increased, decision-making became highly centralized, and employee morale steadily declined. Many experienced employees and managers left during my time there, making it difficult to maintain continuity and trust within the organization. The work itself was meaningful, and I had the opportunity to support important projects with talented colleagues. However, recognition, career growth, and employee retention did not appear to receive the same level of attention as process, reporting, and management oversight. My layoff was communicated as unrelated to performance, which was appreciated. However, after years of contribution and institutional knowledge, the overall experience left me feeling that employees were viewed as replaceable rather than valued long-term assets.
