Toxic work environment paired with no work from home option is deferring talent

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Looming Pension still stands but for how much longer.. No one knows!

Cons

3 years ago I would have commented differently. The company is going down fast and furious. Unwilling to adopt new technology or willing to accept the world's energy transition. Safety culture is beyond repairable and overwhelming. Company is unwilling to adopt work from home option for any employee regardless of situation - this is leading to the loss of most of top talent. Change is needed and this company holds the same values as it has for the past 100 years. What worked then doesn't work now. Change is good - adopt it! Say Yes to the company regardless of what your personal opinion is in order to survive here

Pros

Global workforce of engaging people who are talented and collaborative. Changing roles often means you are never bored. No skimping on ergonomics, safety, or making travel tenable. Pension and 401k match are great... why most people are still there.

Cons

If you are not in the top 10% 5 years in your best option is to leave. Company prepares you to work only for them as it is hard to be a specialist. DS expats are reserved for Canadians and Europeans or executives. Basically everything is focused on the top 1%, with no effort or planning for those that actually do with work and no aknowlegement that the pay is lower than equivalent responsibility in other companies if you are not on the golden ladder. Company is not promoting minorities or US women, but creating at the same time a feeling that white men cant get ahead because they are not one..basically the worst of both.
