Pros

Although the take home pay is not as competitive as you may like, the overall compensation including HSA contributions, stocks, benefits for this and that (like pelvic floor therapy or adoption assistance) and low insurance cost per paycheck. They try to have great culture and for the most part they do with a few black sheep managers that'll get in your way when you speak up for equality and policy.

Cons

There are good and bad managers like most companies. WFH was opening up during the pandemic but they have been rolling it back and wanting folks back in office yet shutdown the Minnesota location around 2021... doesn't quite add up... outlook not great unless you're located in Detroit, Charlotte, or Jacksonville. Workload can be overwhelming depending on rates. Layoffs happen in droughts.

Pros

You get a bi-weekly paycheck.

Cons

The culture has tanked under new leadership over the last couple of years. It’s cutthroat, senior management keeps swapping out experienced leaders for their own people, same values, same bottom line only mindset. No one actually knows what they’re doing because everyone’s expected to do everything and own the fallout when it doesn’t work. Decisions get micromanaged or made behind closed doors about your own team, with no input. There’s constant pressure to cut expenses, and the target seems to double every month, at this rate it feels like the end is inevitable. Layoffs happen a few times a year now, two years running, and leadership straight up tells you it’s the new norm, so get used to it. Everyone knows it, everyone talks about it, and everyone’s living in fear. On top of that, you’re expected to work 12 hour days and answer emails on weekends, then get told you’re still not doing enough. It’s demoralizing. This is an awful place to work, and with the job market this bad, people can’t leave even though everyone’s looking. Feels like a sinking ship, and they deserve it for how they treat people.
