New performance ratings signal a big shift in culture and careers
Pros
Pros- still attracts some of the greatest coworkers around. Peers tend to genuinely care for each other, the customers and partners on the A&C side and want to help each other be successful, build job security and more. The work is interesting and there are loads of resources to grow personally and professionally… if you have anything left over emotionally to invest in yourself.
Cons
Everyone is scrambling to still justify their roles, work and departments to mid level leaders that seem disconnected from the top line decisions being made about programs, people, and layoffs. The result is a “report on everything” culture of micromanagement and having to spend so much time documenting the job it’s hard to find enough time to do the job- let alone engage with ERGs, personal development, or outside of work board positions and volunteering. This period of uncertainty and change makes it hard to get your footing- many people including myself had had 2-3 managers in just the last 8 months.
