This place is insane, its actually almost laughable. You hear constantly about the culture of the place. But it is deluded. The gap between execs and employee reality has never been greater. Example 1 we hear that we don't tolerate bullying or bad treatment by managers. One manager in finance had 7 complaints made to HR by her team. Outcome .... yep promotion to a regional role !! Ridiculous. That is how we have to operate. Example 2 Team member makes a valid complaint and resigns stating why. He heard nothing from HR at all, and was allowed to leave, despite being a high achiever. Spineless management

False: "actually almost laughable"
No, it actually is laughable. Not a day goes by without encountering something bizarrely stupid and id–tic.
That place has its issues for sure. I left a while back...tipping point for me was sitting in a late night meeting as my boss, an Indian woman, spoke to my Indian peers in her native language...zero regard for the single American in the room that didn’t understand her.
Agree. Same thing happened to me. My new manager, promoted from a grade below for unknown reasons (certainly not performance), tried to bully people and blatantly lied - I actually recorded him and can still prove that he lied in person as opposed to what he admitted over emails in writing. I reached out to corporate compliance with emails as proof, HR got engaged but all that happened was I faced more aggravation from the same manager. I even reached out to the SVP who assured me that he will look into this (as "I was a valuable employee"), to give him time - I waited for 3 months and guess what? Nothing happened. So, I left Juniper, as much as I liked to work there otherwise. Most of the others in the team also left the deluded management within the next 6-9 months.
We are all professionals, not workers in a Nazi concentration camp. If management does not show due professional respect , decides that way to do work is to hire overqualified candidates and then try to bully them, then, there is always greener and better pastures where sincerity and hard work is still valued over politcizing and a$$-licking. I found mine quite easily.
