Pros

So desperate for employees they'll pay you. Be prepared to sell your soul.

Cons

Company required employees to take a pay cut during COVID then made an exorbitant amount of money and bought a competitor. Priorities are profits and money with no regard for employees' benefits or work-life balance. Performance metrics are based upon non-sensical metrics that aren't reflective of employees' contributions, Functional area PMs are overworked. Inefficient processes will run you ragged. Procurement is a nightmare to work with.

Really great manager. Remote work major plus. No micro management. Great pay

Annual salary increase this year isn't until September which is odd.

Pros

Strong Leadership, Fair/Average compensation, Thrive Program (company strives to keep you employeed as Sponsor reallocations occur)

Cons

HR is very hands off. It is very difficult to speak to anyone. Not simple to call and ask a question. Everything has to go through a portal. This is challenging when there is time sensitive needs. They make it work but in my opinion, this is a 'con'.
