Astrion Reviews

Cost cutting measures across the board. Sold FTO as a benefit when everyone knows it’s an accounting move and not have to set aside actual earned PTO ( as of Jan 1 all PTO was frozen and locked away until you leave the company at 2023 rates, getting mauled by inflation). In January it was announced the review cycle would go by calendar year, pushing some people’s merit/COLA/contract rate changes off up to a year ( I’m positive it won’t be adjusted for the additional wait). Don’t get sick on the health insurance here , probably go broke with the combo of high premiums and high deductibles.

Annual raises are minimal. Company asks for annual self evaluation assessments, but does not take them into consideration for merit raises. Even getting a post graduate degree will not lead to a raise. FTO is now capped at 112 hours. Leave taken at the end of the year was counted towards the new years leave balance. Leadership has reassured that there is no such thing as a "balance" but there is. HR insists that the policy has not changed but clearly there have been some big changes. Astrion was a great company to start with, but after the merger with Axient things have been declining at a fast pace. Would not recommend to work here until recent changed are reversed.
