- Lacking some structure to promote significant career development, but there seem to be ongoing efforts to improve in this area - Based on multiple project timelines and urgent requests some weeks can be much more intensive than others, but you can typically plan accordingly in advance

The company is fully remote and it’s up to you if you want to work from their DC office or home, so it’s nice to have that flexibility. You’re constantly learning new things on a daily basis, which is exciting and the people you work with are very talented and bring a lot to the table.

Regardless of your role, you will be in meetings all day, everyday. If you’re not in a meeting, everyone can see your calendar and someone will either pull you in a meeting or set a meeting up with you. Because you’re spending so much unnecessary time in meetings, you don’t start your actual work until later in the day, leading to a very poor work/life balance. When you bring your concerns to leadership, it’s pretty much on you to figure it out and leadership will say they are helping you but they do everything but help you/support you. There was also a lot of miscommunication and leadership would never be honest with us on things. So many people kept quitting the company during my time and leadership would be awkward when they were asked why so many people kept leaving. There are also employees that have been here much longer than others and those employees are looked upon as “favorites” since they agree with everything leadership says.
