Vantaggi
long lunches. good benefits. you team would usually be people around your age so it's easy to fit in. that's about it. when we first started out, it was a great company with places for innovation and growth. teams were well-managed and feedback was very welcomed and acted upon.
Svantaggi
top management is highly overpaid and barely does anything. too many policy changes and organisational restructuring made working there a confusing mess. middle management does nothing and takes no criticism. they don't care for their teams and often push responsibilities to other departments, citing "they should be the ones doing it". underlings are overworked with many having to work over time most days and through the night to get work done. top management changed hands multiple times in last couple of months so you'll have to start wondering what that actually means for the company. policies include 'transparency' but often sees whole teams finding out confidential information meant for themselves from other departments. redundancy has been occurring regularly lately. get out if you just got in. culture has changed a lot since the two brothers stepped down. they ran a smooth, well-oiled machine. unfortunately, all their successors after that have basically run the company through the ground. i wouldn't be surprised if groupon closes up within the next five years.
