      Pros

      Diverse pool of talent and decent exposure to various fields/industries with opportunities to grow and challenge yourself amongst others that share the same goals.

      Cons

      Leadership tend to overlook the real problems and only focus on the short-term options to try and resolve things. Questionable candidates were hired in leadership roles that only talked the talk but never walked the walk - leaving lots of burnout on the team and people quitting. HR claims to take care of the employee but like other reviews have mentioned - they are there to protect the company and do not act in your best interest. Pay was not competitive and did not adjust to how market rates really were and there was no gratitude given to people who had been there the longest. The shift to focus on hiring offshore in India has only made things worse as well and makes it harder to collaborate with limited US/India hours (someone is alwasy up early or has to stay up late, sometimes both).

      Pros

      The people are some of the best and like family. We care a lot about our teams and our customers. There are good leaders here but it has just become too hard for us to lead the way they want to.

      Cons

      Executive Leadership, especially the CEO. The culture has changed a lot since he replaced the former CEO. He does not operate with the same values that have been a part of the company ever since I got here. He rules by fear, control, micromanagement, and is unapproachable. You can see it in meetings with the business and even in our Company meetings. It is uncomfortable. He has started only bringing people in from his former network and they are bringing in their friends. Everything is India focused and North America people are losing their jobs and those that are left are burned out from the excessive workload. We are watching good employees leave either on their own or because they are forced out. The optics of who is leaving and why are not good. I want this to work but it feels like a sinking ship at this point. Our customers aren't even happy with us anymore and that makes our jobs even harder.
