Pros

I choose to work here because of the work life balance. I am empowered to not be a key-person dependency. My coworkers are kind and helpful.

Cons

There isn't a lot of opportunity for promotions. You are expected to apply for a job at the next level but new job opportunities are not posted very often. There are many people waiting for their next opportunity. There are pockets of the company that seem very toxic to work for.

Pros

WFH policy and great coworkers.

Cons

Role eliminated while executives and higher-ups spend ridiculous amounts of money on travel to "conferences", while transitioning the team to all contract/external employees to alleviate "budgeting" costs. Leaders continue to appease to higher-ups and C-level executives without a care or understanding of current team dynamics to protect themselves in a cutthroat and toxic environment filled with corporate politics. 0 growth for internal designers at below market salaries (20-25%) and below average benefits- when mentioned to leaders, profits are increasing YOY, yet the discussion becomes a "let's circle back" while 10+ contractors are immediately brought on board.
