Pros

Good parking. Clean lobby. Improving news product.

Cons

Middle management is a huge problem. Management hires family and friends. Sales management is disrespectful and degrades employees. Several people have left because of her. Several reports to HR and nothing is done. Revolving door is due to poor treatment. Those that are left are afraid to speak up. Mainly because they have seen nothing done with previous complaints. Product is improving. Sales Management took a good staff and destroyed it, causing good employees to leave and those that are left with no motivation. You cannot thrive in an environment of deceit and instigation. Those that are left deserve better. But upper management turns a blind eye to the behavior of middle management and how they treat their employees behind closed doors. It's a true Jekyll and Hyde situation.

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.
