Pros

Benefits and PTO are good. Coworkers are great, but management sucks.

Cons

Senior management doesn't care about employees. Everyone is afraid they will lose their jobs.

It's a chaotic environment, and things change at the whim of senior management.

Senior management will not take advice or recommendations from technology experts because they make decisions based on the bottom line.

Senior management lays off loyal, longtime employees to cut costs and replaces them with offshore resources. Those left after layoffs are only there to train their offshore replacements.

Everyone is scared they could lose their job at any time. They say layoffs are done "for now," but that doesn't mean they won't happen next month or next year.

The workplace culture has been destroyed by senior management. They only did RTO to get rid of people.

Advice to Management

Stop being narcissistic, greedy POS! You are only interested in getting big bonuses. You don't consider employees as human beings; you see us as completely expendable. How do you sleep at night?

You change "core locations" to include where you live but lay off workers because they don't live where you say they can live. Stop lying about the benefits of RTO. COVID proved that remote work is successful!! I hope you choke on your bonus. Senior management is the epitome of "the love of money is the root of all evil." The CEO said calling employees "team members" is cult-like. But that's only because he doesn't give a damn about employees.
