Pros

- Great people at this company, so many fun personalities below Senior Manager level. - Like to promote from within, at least when I was there. - Good compensation, decent benefits. - Annual bonuses when I was there, but I've heard that hasn't happened since I left (2011)...

Cons

- Executives (4 in particular) got a little too greedy after they sold majority ownership in the company. They moved the company from Spanish Fork to South Jordan, into a brand-spankin-new building, got 3 floors, top-of-the-line office furniture, pods (apparently different than cubicles because they aren't square), and got in just a little over their heads. Ends up that all four of them are no longer employees of Provo Craft, and they recently had to downgrade their office space to 2 floors instead of the 3 they previously had. And with all the layoffs they've had over the past two years, they fit just fine on those two floors...

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
