“Budget Hours” and EDI/Growth

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

There exist some great staff that help you learn, grow and are inclusive.

Cons

Pay is low when the “Budget Hours” are 2400+/yr. BizOps is undervalued and it shows in many ways. The “unlimited PTO” does not offset your “charge hours.” Each month we’re assigned the charge hours we are to meet EX- June 180hrs and you plan a summer vacation for 40hrs expectation is that you meet your budget; YTD hrs as of May should have a 40hr overage and/or work 220hr of charge time in June. If you fall behind on your budget you are literally Red Listed by those that don’t work with you but have all the control of your pay/future in the organization. Work/life balance is rarely attained and normally only with a large ay cut that affect benefit coverage. Work expectations are set higher and normally reserved for upper management. There’s a lot of smoke and mirrors but each office/region has a different culture and set of values - not a standard throughout. Same is said on process standardization.

Pros

- The coworkers I’ve had in my immediate team were some of the best and brightest. - Health Insurance is only decent benefit

Cons

- Salary is under market - Hour requirements are 1800 charge, 500 non charge, charge is stressed to be “efficient time” so you know the 500 non charge isn’t PTO. - Unlimited PTO (see above), schedule PTO for a couple days two months in advance and if you’re under .5% on charge, you need to send a plan to make it up. - Upper management (C suite) is only there for external optics and photo ops. Not for current staff or leading good initiatives internally.
