Pros

There’s always food. Dress code is relaxed.

Cons

Sick pay is 60%. People come to work sick all the time. If you’re lucky to even have it, you are expected to use PTO if you don’t feel comfortable driving to work when there is ice on the roads. But if you are favored, they’ll give you a laptop to work from home whenever you want. PTO can only be used in 4 hour increments. You can’t make up your time by staying late or working through lunch for appointments, you have to use up all of your sick time before they’ll allow it. Managers are not leaders and tell you to do tasks without explaining how and they are hardly ever available for questions or working from home.
