Pros

People on the site are hard working and care about what they do.

Cons

Executive leadership are clueless and don’t care about people. Predominant view is that people are the cause of all the issues on the site. All of the executives live overseas or out of state and rarely visit the site, so they are clueless to how the plan runs and how to lead it. The MLT team makes poor decisions that end up derailing projects only to blame the teams while lying to each other to cover themselves. End of 2021 site managers were forced to put 25% of their workers as a Needs Improvement, regardless of individual performance, resulting in massive attrition and a loss of their credibility to lead the organization. The CTO is a clown who wants to be an engineer vs an executive and has zero authentic leadership skills. He’s amazing and finding ways to blame everyone else for his inadequacy as a functional leader and had a real talent for demotivating his staff whenever he talks.

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.
