Pros

9/80 work schedule (when not forced into mandatory off Friday meetings)

Cons

Constant expectation to be available after hours or on off days. If you make plans on your off Friday, there is an expectation from senior leadership that you will attend calls while driving, etc. New CEO held an all hands telling employees that there will not be layoffs. The next thing that happened was layoffs. I learned that 3-4x per year we should expect a round of RIF’s. Leadership team has favorites. If you are in, great, if not, keep your resume updated.

Pros

Great time off, schedule flexibility like 9/80, company shut down at end of year, caring coworkers, lots of resources, benefit add ons are great like pet insurance! They have a student loan company match program and tuition reimbursement. They seem to promote from within a lot too which is refreshing.

Cons

Spread out amongst lots of states East coast and West coast. Sometimes can make collaborating hard but the make it work well!
