Pros

Subsidized on-site daycare for employees Semi-flexible with parents with young children Option for hybrid working

Cons

No growth tracks, advancement is based on popularity not performance. Leadership is complacent and does not receive new ideas or suggestions well. Subtle retaliation when concerns are brought up. For the amount of work we’re expected to do, we were severely underpaid.

Pros

Most of the people working there are great with a get things done attitude.

Cons

Unfortunately, the Executive team made a series of bad decisions that effected operations and customers negatively. It was terribly expensive and the team paid for it in layoffs, short staffing, and an environment that turned toxic and heavy. There was very little accountability from the Sales Fields for a variety of issues that left support teams feeling defeated.
