Pros

The work given to me as an intern was challenging and legitimately useful for the company, not just busy-work, so it was a win-win situation for both parties. The intern activities were very fun and involved the managers so we could form a good bond. I would definitely recommend this company for an internship experience, they are definitely interested in hiring back hard-working interns. I currently have a job offer pending, so they are serious about their college recruiting. The culture is laid-back and I made some great friendships with coworkers who treated me as an equal even though I was still a student at the time. By in a large an amazing experience and opportunity.

Cons

Some of the more critical-position employees have little personal time away from the job, so potentially the work load is not properly distributed at some levels.

Pros

Broadly a good company if you’re in a senior decision making role.

Cons

HR policies are words only. Years go by without ability to take any PTO and carry over not allowed. Friday afternoons, all HR US employees stop working with all others working past normal business hours and into the weekend including late Friday asks to complete an action by Monday 8:00 AM that was known earlier in the week but only communicated to the employee after Friday business hours. Every Friday. Onboarding structure / sink or swim approach, no training. No sense of belonging unless you’ve worked here 20 years plus. No growth or development opportunities unless tapped on the shoulder. Many openings are never published, again tapped on the shoulder approach despite offering to volunteer. Dismissive company culture. Every Voice Counts initiative is code for: if you do share your voice, you are on a list to not consider for promotion or any projects that would give you more visibility across the organization to foster one’s growth.
