Pros

Remote work available for some positions. Colleagues are some of the smartest people I’ve ever met.

Cons

The company recently announced they are cutting bonuses for lower level employees but they aren’t providing equal base pay increases, so it’s essentially a pay cut. To do this at a time when the labor market is so competitive and inflation is at a 40-year high feels like a major red flag. Especially considering UL is consistently profitable. Outside of the compensation issues, there seems to be a lack of stability in a lot of divisions as the company is going through a reorganization. There have also been quite a few recent leadership departures which is concerning.

Backstabbing and politics

Pros

Company has a strong mission with lots of potential. Was at one time a great place to work...

Cons

Some of the business leaders are incompetent and are only able to stay in their positions because they are very skilled at deflecting blame onto their subordinates and are not held accountable by senior leadership. Also another big problem is legacy employees with no skills have been promoted to leadership positions and have no business being there. In general there needs to be more accountability for the senior leaders and changes made to put people with skills and talent in those roles.

Pros

Flexibility hours. Lap tops to work remotely when needed.

Cons

If you are truly interested in safety this is not the company for you. The safety standards only apply to the companies that are small. If your customer spends enough money the product will always pass. If your report this to the ethics group you will be removed. Some customers don't even have to test.
