Pluspunten
There are some of the kindest people who work at WillowTree and still follow the old way of thinking.
Minpunten
I know this title seems harsh but it's exactly how it feels right now. I've been at this company for many years, long enough to remember how magical it felt when I first joined. It was so fun and exciting to work on projects when I first joined. When we went out to lunch no one ever complained about their jobs, instead everyone discussed ideas about how we could make our products/WillowTree better. It was so welcoming, inspirational, innovative, and I was constantly learning from people I really respected. Now it feels like we're essentially the arm of a much bigger and frankly stale and boring company (TELUS). It's actually very surprising how far down we've fallen compared to even 3 years ago. We used to talk about our core values all the time, which were developed by employees, now I rarely hear anything about them. We've also lost so many of our core team members that led teams in positive directions while hiring a ton of very unqualified people, which is creating a lot swirl with clients. I still believe we can salvage what made the old WT so great but it has to be addressed from the top down. Right now it feels like leadership thinks we're doing fine and hasn't really acknowledged the fact that most people aren't happy anymore.
