Pros

Hybrid, local, diverse, right off highway

Cons

Worst company I’ve ever worked for. They told me I’d be fully remote when I accepted the offer and changed hybrid later on. There’s no such thing as confidentiality. Managers openly shared incomes of other employees as well as raises. It’s full of lies! AND, your assigned one supplier and that supplier pays your income (basically), but behind the scenes you’re expected to juggle and fully manage about 10 other suppliers. The training… let’s just say there was none whatsoever.
