      Fast-track to burnout

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Nice Office, latest tech stack, fair pay

      Cons

      Leadership is overbearing. Timelines are insane. Lack of teamwork makes you feel isolated and like you can't ask for help.

      Still plenty of room for improvement

      Csa - customer service associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Free Vision and Dental - Friendly employees - Work-life is relaxed - Casual atmosphere - Catered lunch on Mondays - Opportunity to get P&C Insurance License - Solving a need in the Commercial Insurance world

      Cons

      - They don't offer real PTO/Sick days/Vacation days to the CSA team no matter how long you've worked there. You have the ability to earn something like 2 hours of PTO each month. - Promotions are only based upon favoritism. - Low starting pay - Only leadership's opinions are heard. - CSAs are hardly involved in the company culture. - Since there are no paid sick days, they basically encourage you to come into work sick, otherwise it will count as an "occurrence" against you.
