Pros

Team members at the same level as you

Cons

Avoid at all costs. In the last 2 years, they’ve gone through 2 HUGE rounds of re-org, causing lots of people to be laid off. Basically just know that every time a Senior manager or above management executive is hired, the answer to all their problems seems to be a re-org (they just want to show that change = good but that couldn’t be further from what actually happened) Rather than listening to employees, 4-5 people meet and decide what the best operating model is. Constant re-org & layoffs have really hurt this company. I would be cautious. It’s a good place to start your career but be prepared for things like this to be regular. Very unpredictable company. Avoid.

UL Solutions grew from a not-for-profit entity to a for-profit entity in 2012. For the last decade we have made a massive transition towards being a for-profit entity and aligning the business to support this growth. We want to change thoughtfully and bring more perspectives into those decisions. Thank you for this feedback.

Pros

- Mission - Work life balance - Pay - Modernization of the workplace

Cons

- Every year benefits are reduced with terrible and tone deaf justifications. - Added benefits tend only to benefit new employees. - Perception that the company does not value long term employees (suspension of defined benefit program) - Poor ESPP discount - Lack of transparency on how AEIP bonus is calculated - Workflow tools are still extremely cumbersome after years of promises to fix them - Lack of enforcement of hybrid work policy. Many people never come in and are never spoken to about it.
