Pros
  • No layoffs in my department.
  • Pretty laid-back if not aiming for promotions.
  • Relatively generous vacation policy.
Cons
  • Highly political, red tape everywhere.
  • Promotions given to the manager's favorites, not the most deserving.
  • CEO wanted everyone back in the office and wouldn't acknowledge employee concerns.
Advice to Management

Employees are either leaving in droves or trying desperately to. Find out what they want, work on helping them get it, and stop gaslighting and giving excuses as to why they don't.
