Svantaggi
- Leadership has been making so many changes it’s hard to know what’s happening. Also they do not take feedback when given. Feedback on sudden lay offs with no indication, especially during tougher times of the year were ignored (they had lay offs around the holidays in 2023 as well) - if you have social difficulties or disabilities, there isn’t much, if any , support for you. Culture has shifted to not be as openly social and teams aren’t putting in enough efforts to host those environments in my opinion. It can get pretty lonely after ramping and it’s something to consider - no exit interviews or even surveys on how Bench could improve, which would’ve been helpful - exit compensation is terrible, with only 1 week for each year you worked, plus only an extra 2 weeks if you sign a contract stating all wrongs incurred while at this company would be null and void. Also insurance is only available up to the end of your compensation, not for 6 months like they used to provide during lay offs. Very disappointing and something someone should know if entering a place with more lay off sessions than hirings. Even if a temporary job, it may not be worth it
