Pros

Compensation is competitive in some roles Benefits are good and cost effective, especially for families Communication to leadership regarding company wide changes is improving

Cons

"Unlimited" PTO is only relevant for certain roles and even if this in your offer letter, leadership can choose not to honor it HR team is lacking, has a ton of turnover, and is disrespectful and unapproachable at times Some leaders are toxic and do not live the company values Concerns about outsourcing in certain roles Lots of reorgs, at one point I had 4 new leaders in 5 months Attrition continues to be on the rise across multiple departments Leaders do not post all jobs and tend to favor friends or people they have worked with in other organizations over tenure & qualifications Review process is a cluster and unorganized, during mid-year reviews some positions receive increases while others do not Morale & engagement has really struggled since moving to work-from-home
