Pros

Easy enough work and a lot of fun coworkers. Can be stressful at times, but nothing abnormal really.

Cons

When I was first hired on and the director came to talk with all of us newbies, we were told there was room to grow and examples were given of how positions were created for people. Two years later, when I was looking for opportunities, I was told there were none & that "they don't just create positions." I was extremely disappointed and frankly, it's one reason why I ended leaving. Also they encouraged you to express your feelings & confide in them, but they don't mean it. I felt I had talents that were not being utilized (given my education level) and when I trusted them to say something, it turned out that it wasn't the thing to say. We were expected to show up, do the job, and go home. To some that might be a pro. For me, I wanted to the opportunity to grow so I started looking elsewhere.

Pros

The office space is great, it makes me want to go to the office instead of working from home. Upper management communicates often and clearly on the direction in which the company is going. Interesting projects to work on and good guidance from direct management.

Cons

Can't think of any yet. Will update.

Pros

This is specifically for Fanatics Betting and Gaming (FBG), as I can't speak on the other lines of business. - autonomous work with the freedom to really put your stamp on projects - minimal red tape, allowing you to execute and move swiftly - full remote culture, with the expectation to respect employee calendars - stability- the company is careful not to overhire and retain its employees - the people- despite being remote, I feel close to my team and work around people who really believe in the mission and products we provide

Cons

- Remote work is not for everyone. If you aren't letting management know what you are working on, it can sometimes slip through the cracks. - Full autonomy is a double edge sword. It's fantastic for those who feel like their work is often hindered by unnecessary red tape, but it can be a struggle for those who work better with a set structure and routine. - Technology has been improving and the commitment to leveraging AI tools is encouraging, but there is still a bit of manual work still that can lead to human error. - benefits and pay are fair here, but you have to dig a bit to fully utilize all the benefits we have.
