Decent benefits but declining morale and micromanagement

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Decent Government style benefits, on site cafeteria, volunteer events

Cons

I hate to say it, but the organization is going downhill. Employee morale is low in many departments. Working from home opportunities are becoming rare pushing talent elsewhere. Benefits are getting worse by the year. Leaders are micromanaging and the pressure is starting from the top. This is the first time I’ve considered leaving the organization since I’ve been here about few years. I really thought I wanted to retire here, but they are no longer investing in employee well being. They are simply worried about how the view is.

Ineffective management and poor benefits are major issues

Pros

There are no pros to working here, just ask anyone who does.

Cons

Ineffective management. Bad and expensive health insurance. No 401k. Really bad cafeteria food. Lame vacation plan. When I meet other employees for the first time, some of the first things they say is this place sucks and I hate it here. I couldn't agree with them more. The CEO walks around the building mumbling derogatory things at you under his breath, and I don't think the management could find their way out of a wet paper bag. Their computer systems go down constantly wreaking havoc on the employees. Super stressful sweatshop kind of place. The only thing that I can recommend is that you stay away from this company.
