Compensation when in attendance and opportunity to learn new things.

No work life balance, no diversity, no inclusion, no sick time, if you do not come to work you do not get paid. Always looking for ways to fire you.

Pros

Good Salary, 3443 schedule, good people to work with

micromanaged, company moves you whenever they please regardless if you want to. They don't really care about employees. HR was not helpful when they needed to step in.
