Business Outlook

Pros

- Some cool coworkers (although they’re all leaving). - Great food. - Standard slew of tech benefits.

Cons

- Absolutely no growth potential. They don’t care about investing in their employees. - “Council”, conducted mainly by white employees, is cultural appropriation and a mockery of native cultures. - Sexual harassment is tolerated (and sometimes encouraged). If you’re a woman or LGBT, you will be harassed. If you are a sexual harasser, you will be promoted. - Management is incompetent and behaves like children. - Business decisions are irrational and delusional and often completely incomprehensible. - Management lies to your face. - HR will generally just ignore you. - Management will manipulate you to suit their purposes and throw you under the bus. - Internal politics is toxic (again, management consists of immature children). - Anonymous surveys aren’t anonymous and they will retaliate against you.
