Pros

The 401k is amazing and the leadership is just as good. I have the most sales driven position in the company and they don't make it stressful in the least. If your driven at all, you want to be successful and bring in the results no matter where you are. The bonus structure is a team bonus structure so it truly enforces the working together mentality. My direct boss is one of the best you can work with which is probably true for most of our top executives.

Cons

The individuals that complain about the salary yet fail to realize how mellow their job is. Sure you can go out and find a job that pays more but have fun work insane amounts of hours and being micro managed every second... No thanks

Pros

Primarily remote work. Decent PTO after the 4th year.

Cons

Limited staffing and limiting overtime opportunities until the bitter end of potentially missing deadlines, which you are guilted into working. 2% "raise" every January and ZERO merit raises. Gutted profit sharing and profitability bonuses over time. Most recent bonus, which is tied to net profit after dividends, was given a result when the scale was never published. All previous bonuses had a floor-to-ceiling profit scale that showed the targets months in advance of the end of the bonus period.
