Pros

Family Atmosphere 401k is matched and vested right away Work from home two days a week Decent yearly Bonus Occupational Health Department is easy to work with

Cons

Not full work from home Pay does not equal the work the required health insurance is bad Middle Management is bad Dental insurance is only ok no pension bad paternity and maternity leave open office you can be covered by a lot with FMLA but when you come back from it watch out Spend more on trying to get PGA golf tournaments and hotels than their people Very pushy for employees to contribute to United Way but then they take a lot of the credit Yearly reviews just feel like a way to keep your pay lower as management does not really agree with your own assessment When you assess management nothing really changes if though they get really bad scores Environment can seem very vindictive

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. It’s great to know the benefits you enjoy and that you look forward to working in our hybrid model. To address the benefits you mentioned, we recently conducted an associate benefits survey to get feedback about our entire benefits package and better understand what our associates are looking for. We’re taking all feedback into consideration as we look to update our benefits. In regards to any challenges with your workspace or the people you work with, I encourage you to reach out to your manager or your HR representative. Please know we’re always open to feedback and want to do what we can to address any concerns. Thank you again for sharing a review. Jim Frank – Chief Information Officer
