Pros

A lot of really great people Pay felt fair (although bonuses and raises did not) Flexible enough with WFH as needed for appointments etc.

Cons

I left the company a year ago, and I feel like a different person. I didn't realize what the stress had done to me. I was road rage-y, always on edge, not sleeping well, felt like a constant failure, etc. The demands were always changing - I never had the same KPIs from one month to another. I never felt that the company trusted or respected marketing. Sales would constantly take our wins, but credit us for any failures. I watched the company make good people into terrible managers because of the lack of structure and support, and the high stress and demands. The health insurance was mid at best. Was hired under the pretense that there was room for growth. There were no internal promotions on the team. Our annual reviews and bonuses were moved back 3 times in the 2.5 years I worked there, and there was always a reason I wasn't eligible for 100% of my bonus. I know I'm not the only one with that experience. If you have other options, take them. It's simply not worth the stress.

Pros

Great pay, competitive benefits, and annual raises

Cons

This company makes it impossible to be a parent. They do not give sick time, it must be earned. They do not allow you to work from home anymore, even though that was the biggest selling point used by HR for years. They made it a point to say it is inexcusable to work from home even if your children are sick. You will be penalized for using PTO as sick time, and if you’re out of PTO then you will punished further. You will be made to choose between your family and your employer frequently and you’re expected to choose your employer if you want an annual raise as you will be considered “average” otherwise and that is factored into your raise consideration. You are not allowed to have any pride flags or memorabilia at your desk as it is “unprofessional.” In the years I have been here, I have seen more and more stripped from their employees while they report record breaking profits year over year. Please be cautious when signing that contract!
