Pros

Co-workers were friendly and kind.

Cons

Pay is laughable. Employees are dispensable. Raises and bonuses are completely nonexistent. They would rather lay off loyal employees than consider lowering the salaries of c-level personnel. It was always so nice to hear how we were "all one family" and watch as most of my coworkers were struggling to make ends meet while the Chief Marketing Officer (an Edmund) bought a 4M mansion and sent her kids to $90K/yr private schools.

Pros

One day a week to work at home. Good and affordable benefits program. Three floating holidays.

Cons

Culture needs work. Alot of siloes that making getting things done difficult at times. There is also a pattern of individuals not responding to or acting upon requests for information or assistance, and then the requester being held responsible for the lack of progress.
