Pros

Benefits are unmatched in today's US job market

Cons

This review is about the US/North American group. Leadership underwent a change a few years ago (new CEO) and it really changed things. People are always looking over their shoulder, folks are tracking who is in the office which days and - get this - they make you take sick time if you're sick on "mandatory in-office Wednesdays." The CEO has been through 3 HR directors in 3 years. When I left, the CEO was the current director of HR (and if you don't know how big of a red flag that is, lucky you.) They're on a hybrid schedule, but I'd bet it won't last - the good ol' boys club in management wants to keep tabs on everyone and feel the power of having desks filled. Office has zero culture or fun whatsoever - it's like a tomb. On top of that, the global group has a diversity goal of 40% women in management - why not just go for 50? And their idea of diversity is more people from multiple countries - not a peep about race.

Pros

Good parking lot. Impressive lobby. Some nice people are there doing their time & counting down their days.

Cons

Management doesn’t care at all about their employees. They will drain you like vampires if you let them. They have denied good employees their lunch break & then said “Somfy doesn’t break laws” and then fired them. It happened, I saw it. So have a good lawyer on standby. And document everything lousy management does. They spy, eavesdrop and lie. Beware!
