Office, Tech, But Low Pay
Office, Tech, But Low Pay
- Most of us get an office with a door.
- Great access to very current technology.
- Plenty of places to park.
- Friendly people in the halls.
- Looks great on a resume.
- Uncompetitive salaries; pay is mediocre at best
- Poor benefits and bad health coverage
- Low morale
- NO JOB SECURITY
- Stagnant management with not a lot of advancement opportunity
- No raises in 18+ months
- Culture is "Work long hours, keep your head down, don't ask questions, and be glad you didn't get laid off."
In the all-hands meetings, you keep talking about wanting to stop the exodus and attract top talent, but you offer sub-standard pay and a lamentable benefits package.
No one is working long hours out of the goodness of their hearts, and no one is working 50-hour weeks because they love the technology. The talent is fleeing this company because the company no longer does anything that attracts talent.
