Pros

It had the small company kind of feel to it Everybody knows everyone and lots of team activities We would do weekly "treat days" with all the Account Team and IT Lots of opportunity to learn and gain valuable experience Opportunity to "do things right" and correct a lot of the mistakes and messes that were done in the past by prior employees Lots of eye candy

Cons

-Working excessive hours in support of the company -Too many problems with the infrastructure when I started there (although things were much better with that when I left) -Not enough recognition for hard work and going above and beyond. All I ever got was "you shouldn't be doing that this way or getting written up for doing "what I had to" to keep the business running when things went down or for working too many hours - when the job required it -After the move to South Jordan lots of people got on their "high horse" and the sales numbers weren't doing too well. Lots of job cuts and that's when I chose to leave. - There was no more room to grow my career besides upper management - Senior Management (aka Executives) were spending way too much money on expensive trips. Like CHA, where we would send half the company employees (150+ employees) across the country.

Pros

I loved my team. I had incredible benefits, and the projects we worked on were always so fun.

Cons

They moved from a flexible hybrid schedule to encouraging people basically to come back to office. That's why I ultimately left because I wanted a job where I didn't have to put my kid in childcare.

Pros

Coworkers at the same level are generally good people and easy to work with. Benefits are acceptable.

Cons

- Toxic and political work environment - Leadership is disconnected and often incompetent - Strong “power trip” culture, especially at director and executive levels, with little respect for ICs - Culture feels fake; leadership promotes values they don’t actually follow - Communication doesn’t feel safe. People are careful about what they say to avoid backlash - Instances of inappropriate workplace behavior, including the use of racially insensitive language, which is not always adequately addressed - Feels like image matters more than employees or integrity - Be skeptical of overly positive reviews; they may not reflect the reality many employees experience
