From Valued Employee to Discarded Extraneous Resource
Pros: Great workplace flexibility, work/life balance
Ability to work remote
New product groups have a start-up feel & lively energy
Cons: -Very isolating - everyone keeps to themselves, no sense of teamwork, camaraderie
-High expectations to perform right from day 1 - sharp/steep learning curve
-Little regard for an employee's value-add if the company's numbers don't add up
-As soon as Larry goes shopping for companies, count your days. They tend to ship jobs off-shore as a result of "cost restructuring" after an acquisition.
-Little or No yearly salary increases, reviews mean nothing. Your reward is keeping your job.
