Is this your company?

Pros

It's a job, and it's for a good cause.

Cons

Pay-scale is far less than industry averages. Leadership has no concept of the product or value they create. Micro-management including watching your "online time" to the minute. Management treats others significantly different than others on the team.

Pros

Decent benefits Hybrid WFH schedule Some really great direct managers

Cons

Chaotic and disorganized, with old outdated backend systems. Work performance and output not generally recognized: people who do very little work are often paid the same, or more than people who do double or triple the workload, and are allowed to continue with the company while other shoulder the load. Once you are on a team or part of a BU - good luck making a move to another team or BU. The place is a revolving door for a lot of positions, but once you learn a skillset they are unlikely to allow a move. The sales team runs this place, so be prepared to be bullied constantly by them, even when you are told to gatekeep.
