Svantaggi
- Base salaries are lower than average. There also doesn't seem to be much adjustment for different costs of living from office to office. - This is the only company that tries to put a dollar value on benefits when it comes to calculating your total compensation. I understand that benefits cost the company money, but the only compensation I care about is the compensation that pays my bills (i.e. my base salary). - While there have been no layoffs during this Recession, our managers have not replaced those who have left or been promoted. Instead, they have simply redistributed the workload. This has resulted in a lot of stressed-out employees who probably wish they had been laid off. - Everyone gets the same score on Performance Appraisals - "Meets Expectations". There is not much motivation to go above and beyond. - The company has a habit of rehiring those who quit and then giving them a higher job title than when they left. This alienates those who remain loyal to the company.
