      Pros

      There was a time when I would have said I have great colleagues, but they continue leave at every opportunity

      Cons

      Out of touch C-Suite blinded by PR McGuffins like the 'He for She Campaign', while hyper-political and ineffective middle management chase their own agendas and overload the dwindling herd of individual contributors. Outdated technology and thinking coupled with a fear of change cripple forward movement of a lumbering beast that seems content to react rather than lead.

      Pros

      1. With poor compliance practices, you will thrive if you like living on the edge. 2.Company loves looking at power point slides. And talking about it. And looking at it some more. If you love churning out them with no real action actually taking place, this is THE PLACE for you!! 3. We have many people at global and zone level whose job is to dream u[p initiatives. If you love a company that declares 101 priorities both internally and externally, look no further! 4. Excellent HR/ admin practices. They can pay you your bonus... and claw it back after because they made a mistake. TWICE, in a row. 5. Do you love panel discussions....training sessions that does not actually add real value to your professional life? SE does just that... every other month. Come hear (yawnnnn) our Country president/ vice president/ director (and any other senior person) talk about...learning....well being....stress management..... Zzzzzzzzz. Seriously guys, what about having real experts to talk about all this?

      Cons

      Nothing. SE is such a 'wonderful place'

      LAYOFFS ARE KEYS TO IMPACT AND SUCCESS

      Pros

      Someones benefits when they don't change annually.

      Cons

      The company has a pattern of investing in employee development but then laying staff off to improve financial metrics. While leadership questions high turnover, employees often feel a lack of job security. Those with higher salaries due to experience, as well as newer hires, may find themselves unsupported during challenging times. In addition, new initiatives, software, and strategies are consistently rolled out from upper management with a “bird’s eye” perspective, without gathering meaningful input from the teams directly impacted. This top-down approach limits the effectiveness of change and overlooks valuable expertise at the operational level. The organization has significant potential, but in practice, it functions as little more than a place to collect a paycheck, as meaningful change is rarely supported or sustained. Even programs branded under IMPACT feel misaligned — more like “Imposing Management’s Plans And Cutting Talent” than truly empowering employees.
