Pros

I don't like being vague but at this point everything has been amazing. My hiring manager to the interview team and last but not least, Cyndi Bednar, TA team member. Without Cyndi, we would have never made it through the process with such speed and efficiency. Her skills/abilities were next to none, she was kind and professional. Always making sure to update everyone and not let things stagnate. From the start, getting the verbal and accepting the written was fast and efficient. I didn't have to wait on hard copies or physical signatures from team members. Definitely look for Cyndi's name when going through the process and make sure to ask for her.

Cons

New hire and nothing to report at this time. However, I'm very honest and will definitely update this with facts, if any come to light. However, I've worked for a great deal of companies throughout my life, and believe me this by far one of the top tier places to be. Cheers.

Pros

Unlimited PTO Supportive Management Depending on who you get Good work life balance as long as you don't take the job with you after hours Work from Home Hands on Training - could still use improvement Annual pay increase

Cons

2 layoffs in a year when they keps saying everything was fine.... Laying off core contributors so now everyone who is left is doing the work of 2-3 people and not being compensated accordingly Only way to get a worth while pay increase is to move up in the company the annual increases are not inline with inflation or cost of living
