Pros

Used to have flexibility since we were remote (even prior to Covid). Not anymore.

Cons

- The leadership at the executive level has archaic ideals. They believe forcing employees who have always been remote (even prior to Covid) will create “culture” and “engagement”. All it is doing is creating a culture where everyone trauma bonds over the absolute terrible leadership by sending each other memes, TikTok’s, gifs and reels about how miserable they are because their company is terrible. They are making it pretty clear their goal is to get people to quit so they don’t have to lay them off and pay severances. - Acosta is way behind on pay. They have done numerous pay assessments with outside parties that return the same results “below market value” every time and they continue to do nothing to change pay. - “Merit increase” (if you can call them that) were as low as 1% this year. - The company knows the employee perception is so bad they created this new Glassdoor page for the “Acosta Group” instead of trying to improve the score of the original Acosta account. Don’t be fooled. The company would be below a 3.0 if they hadn’t created a new page and hounded current employees to go to Glassdoor. - Acosta is a sinking ship that will run its employees into the ground until they quit. After that, they will not backfill and just give those remaining more work with no pay. This is how HR operates at the company.
