HORRIBLE Company.

Pros

The only good part about this job was working remotely. That's it.

Cons

Where do I begin. I should have noticed the red flags even before I was hired- no one ever turned their video on even during my interview process. I worked here for a year and I had no idea of what any of my leadership or colleagues looked like. My first week of work crickets...nobody reached out or told me what to do. I had to look over large SOP manuals myself to get the gist of what I was doing. Such a cold & unfriendly working environment. The worst part - I was diagnosed with cancer during my employment here. I worked full-time during it, used my PTO for chemo days. I did all my work never any complaints and was so loyal to this place - just to be "laid off" when I hit my year anniversary with two other teammates. BEWARE - they hire you and promise you a bonus and then do massive layoffs right before you reach the quarter for your bonus. I didn't get mine because they purposely cut me off DAYS within hitting it. Absolutely disgusting company. Also, I had to sign up for their COBRA since you know I'm a laid off cancer patient - the company inactivated my health insurance a couple months in and didn't notify United Health Care or myself. This company is complete trash. Not one person reached out to me to check on me during the darkest times of my life - they do not care about you. They have such high turnover rates - all the jobs eventually get sent overseas to India. Also there's no HR number/I had to fight to even get paid out for PTO. Don't let this happen to you - RUN.

Pros

I have to enter five words to say none.

Cons

Too much disconnect between corporate India and stateside. Work/Life balance can be terrible. Weak PTO Expensive benefits Constantly in crisis mode where they will look to you to fix issues that as a leader, you saw coming months ago.

Pros

The one and only good thing I have had is my manager is nice. I have heard otherwise from mostly everyone else though.

Cons

Terrible pay, I was lied to when first joining being told a huge raise at 1 yr mark. $2 raise. I am now 2 years and 4 months in. Told I was going to get a promotion at 2 years. Still nothing. I want to leave so bad but now I am stuck waiting for the promotion. I would avoid at all cost.
