Pros

No pros observed after recent leadership change

Cons

1. Micro-management: Constant monitoring of whether employees are in the office for 8 hours and enforcing a mandatory 3-day in-office policy, even during emergencies, with no work-from-home flexibility. The services team is especially difficult to work with—it's unclear whom to approach for discussions, and speaking to the wrong person often leads to managers scolding us. I’m confused—is doing the work important, or simply being in the office? 2. Favouritism: Promotions and good salary hikes are given only to those who show off that they work more, while others are overlooked. 3. Poor work-life balance: The company expects employees to spend 8 hours in the office, plus an additional 3 hours commuting. If I’m dedicating 11 to 12 hours a day to work, where is the time for personal life? Is staying online for 8 hours more important, or working efficiently? 4. Lack of anonymous complaint reporting: There is no proper system to report complaints anonymously. Even if someone raises a concern, their identity is revealed to management, leading to excessive monitoring and scrutiny. 5. Location bias in the services team: Services team managers exhibit clear location bias. One senior manager even remarked that people from my location work only for the salary—but isn’t everyone working for a salary? Such discriminatory behavior based on location should not be tolerated.

Pros

Nothing worth mentioning. Any positive experience is meaningless when you’re discarded without warning.

Cons

Zero job security—LNW lays off employees without warning, proving that no matter how much effort you put in, you’re just a number to them. Leadership is incompetent and fails to communicate, leaving employees completely blindsided. They push a fake "great culture" narrative, but the second it’s inconvenient for them, they show their true colors. No loyalty to employees, so don’t waste your loyalty on them.

Not Worth It

Recommend

Pros

- Challenging projects that are especially rewarding to see through to completion - Good communication and relationships with peers below "Leadership" - Very little micro-management

Cons

- Systems department is run very poorly - Not viewed as a person, just a resource to be thrown around. People understand very quickly that leadership members (VPs) do not care about you. - No work/life balance, expectation to always be available day/night/weekend. I've seen a VP take away a full teams weekend last second and laugh about it to their faces. - Very little promotions, only movement is lateral shifts internally to different departments out of systems - Below average compensation package
