Good company culture and benefits - Questionable HR practices

Manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good overall company culture and great benefits. Lots of educational opportunities for self growth. If you get with the right team and good managers, you have lots of opportunity to grow upwards within the company.

Cons

Some management likes to gate keep info and keep those beneath them down. I’ve heard this story far too often from many people across many divisions. Also HR and legal counsel appear are afraid to take action on problematic managers and employees until they know they have a lawsuit on their hand.
