Svantaggi
Our CEO said in a recent profile (meant as positive PR!) that "employee happiness is not a goal". Believe him! It's not. Everything bad about Hoppers culture is 100% by design. They WANT employees to feel insecure in their job all the time. They WANT teams to be really just a few brilliant individual contributors that occasionally exchange token words with each other to undermine each other and try to get ahead. You will be treated like a replaceable part no matter how good your work is, because how good you are doesn't really matter all that much, either. There are plenty of people capable of doing this job for a year, which is all Hopper seems to care to keep people around for even if they don't leave of their own accord. It's a mess. Your reward for doing a good job is you get to have more of the same mess and chaos until the next round of layoffs. THIS IS YOUR BEST CASE SCENARIO.
