“Great WLB thats about it, avoid if you're trying to grow your career”

Verified User Former Employee · H***** · Product Manager - Apr 25, 2022

Pros- WLB, I'm working less than 30 hours a week
- Pretty easy to navigate the politics

Cons- They get nothing done, every year management sets targets, goals, strategies and none of it ever pans out. they are deathly afraid of anything outside of the status quo
- The technological capabilities are so far behind the time, everything is coded in java and using outdated bloated enterprise software.
- good luck getting anything to production let alone customers you can talk to, the overhead for any type of digital application is so overbearing, an excel sheet and email is usually a better solution.
- it its a hire from within, a culture that doesn't strongly question people's competence and discipline to lead complex organizations.

Reasons for Resignationtechnology at this company is a joke, there is no growth opportunity here the middle managers are so bloated and slow that nobody ever makes a decision or has a strong ability to set a direction and execute. its death by process, and former presidents have noted this, yet there was no reward for eliminating processes, no clear and measurable goals were ever set and every function built such strong silo's that they effectively operated as different companies.

I left because year over year nothing changes or improves, theres no career path or exciting opportunities for me here, and other companies pay much better.
