Pros

In 2019 this company was not bad to work for but after COVID the management just keeps making really bad decisions. They had some decent stock options but they are cutting back. They use to give bigger pay raises but that's no longer a thing either. Somehow they are consistently Top 10 or #1 work place, but In the 6 years I've worked there I've never had a survey about it. Its a company that looks good and might be good for the first few years but you will get burned if you stay to long.

Cons

They are currently firing developers that have worked from home when they are not suppose to without any warning or advance notice. There is a disconnect with HR and Development currently that could affect the companies overall outlook. HR just sees names to fire. In reality they now have large portions of payroll critical code that no one knows how works. Most devs struggle to understand this code and some quit. Financially speaking the company is doing great, but Chad is in his ivory tower and is not loyal to his employees at all. You will be fired without any real reason. To clarify my WFH was approved, but the management that approved it wasn't suppose to. My entire team was fired including my TL.

Pros

* Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

Cons

Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
