Pros

I work in a nice office building. The insurance paid for my BRCA Genetic Testing. The pay is fair and seems appropriate for the job.

Cons

Terrible benefits and time-off, with a lot of lip-service paid to work/life balance. The only holidays are New Year's Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas. No Christmas Eve or the day after Thanksgiving. There is a top-down culture of micro-managing and inefficiency. Our mission and duties are constantly changing, and the corporate leaders can't seem to agree.

Pros

Flexible work environment - hybrid

Cons

Heavy workload, way below market compensation for the amount of responsibility, very limited advancement opportunities & uneven workload distribution among teams. In my experience, leadership made repeated statements about promotion opportunities in career growth that ultimately did not materialize. I felt that expectations were set that weren’t followed through on, which made it incredibly difficult to trust leadership. Transparency and follow through on career development could be significantly improved.
