Pros

There are no longer any pros to working at E Source but there used to be! The new CEO, Dave Perotti, has even abandoned the last CEO's commitment to the employee experience.

Cons

This company has been run into the ground. The company is a total mess internally. The majority of the worker bees who actual produce and deliver work products keeping the company relevant are overworked and underpaid. Attrition has been through the roof since we were acquired by private equity and many of my coworkers who have stayed until this point are now running for the hills. The number of employees with client knowledge greater than a couple of years has dwindled significantly - because everyone has escaped this hell hole. New employees will have fun picking up the slack of the 4 people they are replacing but don't worry, it makes the private equity firm look good (WORRY)! The cherry on top, it's clear the worst is yet to come!

Pros

The people who are directly involved with project work are smart and passionate. Project work is interesting and feels meaningful

Cons

C-suite leadership is hyper-focused on profits. I worry this will lead to higher turnover, lower work quality, and less happy clients over time. C-suite leadership also seems to make decisions in a vacuum without consulting the teams who are actually impacted by those decisions There is limited investment in employees and our professional growth. Clunky systems, unclear expectations, and poor communication between departments. Limited to no investment in culture, employee well-being, or team cohesion
