Review from Executive Dept

Inclusive work environment where you're allowed to bring your whole self

Review from Executive Dept

The company presents as very socially conscious, and for the majority of the company I believe that to be true. Some of the leadership at the Tampa office does not live the values that the company as a whole promotes.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Workaholic culture, believes you have to work tons of hours to have a promotion

Dont let negative people manipulate others

not being micromanaged and have little say on what you can do

Leadership introduces unnecessary stress and low-value add churns just to fill their insecurity and ego
