Pros

Work from home. Not much more to add here.

Cons

Company is completely disheveled and executive management is anything but transparent. Company gave my team 6 business days notice (from time the check should have been in our accounts) that we would not receive our quarterly bonus even if we hit or exceeded our numbers. There was a hiring freeze and I didn't have a manager for months.. when I left there was still no one in the cross hairs to take over. Executive team will say one thing and then go in a completely different direction. Constantly changing structure / procedure. Our way or the highway mentality. Not concerned with building lasting relationships with customers. Underpaid compared to competition. Every single colleague of mine who has left has said they wish they had done it sooner. I agree. If your company was acquired expect your leadership team to be pushed out.

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
