Vantaggi
• Fully remote
• I loved the work, my boss, and my team (but the client was allowed to run wild)
• Promotes diversity (but the formerly robust DEI program at PureRed silently vanished when ITG took over)
• Unlimited PTO policy
Svantaggi
I was a victim of the sixth or seventh round of of layoffs within under two years—and there's been another round this month—due to "offshoring" jobs ("rightsizing", "competing in a global marketplace", "globalization", "nearshoring", blah, blah, blah).
ITG f/k/a PureRed cares FAR more about money than people. They're axing very talented, hard-working, and driven people only to replace them with cheaper labor in South America and South Asia (while claiming "it's not about cheaper labor"). The company's goal is absolutely to replace all subexecutives with "offshored" labor.
ITG claims to be different and better with claims of "transparency" and a "culture of kindness", but they're just like all the other corporate machines with cronyism, high-paid executives (some of whom who get golden parachutes after mergers and buyouts), very low-paid worker bees, and a bunch of lip service.
I've never been more disappointed in a company. Just be evil and own it. Stop lying to everyone. And PLEASE stop the crocodile tears, leadership. Have some self-awareness. You've axed people who make very little money in one of the worst job markets in years. Spare us the theatrics.
