      Pros

      The compensation is strong, making it a classic "golden cage" — hard to leave, even when things aren’t ideal. There’s significant potential to take on more responsibility and drive meaningful impact.

      Cons

      The benefits, which were once among the best, have now declined to a middling level at best. Unless an idea has B-band sponsorship, it's unlikely to move forward within the next five years. Leadership often believes its own narratives without reflecting on poor outcomes, which leads to repeated mistakes. Senior management tends to take a "my way or the highway" approach to feedback—an odd stance, especially considering they hire subject matter experts only to disregard their input.

We recognize that larger organizations can naturally move a bit slower, we’re continually working to make processes smoother for our employees. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience.

      Pros

      The people you work with are amazing. The benefits are wonderful. I appreciate the bonus structure and the growth I've experienced with the organization.

      Cons

      Leadership's strategy and vision are severely lacking and self-serving. There's a lot of favoritism with the same people being included in decision-making without consideration for their ability to actually deliver results. In turn, the lower-level employees are left to clean up the disaster. I see that Swiss is on here making comments on employee reviews - hopefully they take note of how many people in the last 90 days said the same thing about the leadership strategy. We're not on glassdoor because we like reviewing our company - we're here looking for outside opportunities because of the way the company is currently operating. We're bleeding good talent because they no longer align with the corporate strategy.
