Pros

Only pro is the medical and dental and current remote opportunities

Cons

Management operates from top down. The CEO promised no one would be laid off during the Covid pandemic, so they “eliminated positions”, then wouldn’t talk about it or mention it. We were told not to discuss. They reward bad behavior and give upper Management positions to people with less than stellar ethics. They give absolutely no preference or consideration to internal candidates when they apply for new positions. It’s useless to apply because they already have people they want to bring in and just put out positions and bring in more upper Management . They don’t even have the decency to reach out to you. We over overworked and underpaid. They have you doing the job of many people and then bring in more upper management instead of talking to anyone about what is going on. Corporate is toxic. They promote work life balance but it is non existent.i could go on but it useless.

Pros

You can get a good payout if you can tolerate the toxicity.

Cons

While the initial recruitment pitch is polished, the internal reality is a culture defined by a "run by a few, for a few" mentality. There is a palpable lack of regard for the broader team, as leadership appears primarily focused on their own career optics in a way that feels exclusionary to those doing the heavy lifting. * The "Two-Year" Trap: Top talent is often brought in under the guise of long-term opportunity, only to find an environment designed for short-term extraction. This has created a cycle of constant turnover and a "revolving door" of staff. * Health and Balance: The workload is relentless, and the lack of work-life balance quickly takes a toll on your physical and mental health. Many stay only because the "golden handcuffs" of a high salary make them feel trapped. * Management Style: There is very little genuine investment in team morale or development. Once you're in, the focus shifts entirely to output, often at the expense of the individual’s well-being. Final Verdict: Despite the strong pay and talented peers, the high turnover rate and disregard for the team make this a difficult environment to recommend for the long term.
