Svantaggi
Recently, the decision was made to force employees within a 30 mile radius of the Des Moines Headquarters back into the office at least 3 days per week. Management claims this will not affect the opportunities of fully remote employees but time will tell if that is true. It is easy to feel left out when your in-office colleagues are participating in team building activities but there is no budget available to fly in remote employees. Management does not seem to understand that budget for travel is part of the cost of remote employees. It is very naive to ignore that piece of the equation, and does not align with the claim that Principal is remote friendly. Management just seems to be disconnected with what their employees want from a workplace. -Sometimes decisions are made before proper infrastructure or processes are in place -Compensation is typically below average -Not fully supportive of remote work
