Pros

-Great teammates and a collaborative atmosphere -Supportive direct management -Solid in house training and learning opportunities

Cons

-Very below market pay/benefits package -Upper management is stubborn and refuses to listen to associate’s concerns, especially with regard to remote work. -Direct management is not empowered at all to retain good talent. Every little decision about your career is moved up the chain and considered by upper management, who have no idea who you are or how much of a real impact you have. You are just a number to them. -Lots of great talent has left and continues to leave. Morale has been decreasing precipitously the last year or two.
