more than usual exposure to senior leadership flexible work hours for the most part slightly above average compensation free grad school

straight pay for any overtime AFTER 45 hrs so you're actually paid less to work overtime General consensus is it's very difficult to level up Health benefits are pretty bad but it's the same HDHP plan all companies are moving towards
