Pros

Compensation is really good. Product is also great.

Cons

- Management is embarrassing, immature and egotistical. A quick google search can give you a good idea as to the backgrounds of a few of them. Being a newly public company, I hope the Board finally replaces current management with adults. Middle management also keeps there mouths shut and jump when mgmt says jump and have sold their souls. - No performance evals and little feedback which enables company to get rid of people on the spot with little documentation to get around any legal issues; leads to high turnover. -I want this Company to be great, and it can be, but a lot has got to change for long-term success to happen.

Pros

Competitive compensation and strong benefits package. The coworkers and frontline teams are one of the company’s greatest strengths many are incredibly hardworking, supportive, and committed to helping both customers and teammates succeed.

Cons

Significant operational gaps continue to impact efficiency and employee experience. Reporting systems and workforce planning frequently feel disconnected from the realities of day-to-day operations. Employees and leaders are often expected to be accountable for metrics without reliable reporting or clear guidance on how those metrics are measured. Workload distribution can feel inconsistent, creating an environment where some teams and managers become overextended while others are underutilized. This contributes to burnout, frustration, and a lack of confidence in operational decision-making.
