Must Love Emojis - Recensione dipendente - Associate presso Forem

- Remote work culture that was globally distributed. - Benefits.

Now that some time has passed since my departure I think I'm in a place where I can stick to the core points. - There was a high rate of turnover. People came and went especially in leadership. Forem spent considerable resources hiring outside people as opposed to promoting within. And even those people seemed to turnover quickly (less than a year). - The compensation was below the current market rates. If you're an engineer you could easily make more money with less work elsewhere. - There was a lack of management and vision. The overall goal of the company was changing often and it was uncommon for those changes to be clearly communicated. - The morale declined significantly. With the previously mentioned turnover and frequent changes in the vision, the morale seemed to be very low. People were largely disengaged. The organizational structure of departments and titles changed often and that made it difficult to move up.

Peers in which I worked alongside were absolutely awesome!

In day-to-day interactions, I witnessed instances of unconscious bias and microaggressions that were swept under the rug rather than being addressed. Instead of fostering an environment where employees felt comfortable bringing their whole selves to work, certain comments and behaviors perpetuated a culture where individuals from underrepresented groups felt sidelined and unheard. When I attempted to raise concerns about these disparities, the response from management was often dismissive, creating an atmosphere of fear and apprehension that stifled open dialogue. Instead of embracing constructive criticism and striving for improvement, the company chose to protect its image rather than addressing the root causes of these issues.
