Vantaggi
In theory, reasonable benefits: good insurance, annual bonus, open PTO. In practice, all of these things have gone downhill since PE takeover.
Svantaggi
I have been with this company for multiple years, since we were private. In that time we have gone public and been purchased by private equity, and been through numerous changes in leadership. I'm currently on my third CEO and about to be on my fifth department head in my time at this company. Every change in leadership has caused this company to go downhill further. Multiple rounds of layoffs. Most new employees are no longer bonus eligible, PTO requests get scrutinized even though it's meant to be open PTO. Work is being outsourced to Asia. The new leadership is convinced that AI is what will fix this company, and anyone who disagrees with becoming a professional AI babysitter is going to be thrown overboard.
