Pros

Compensation is very competitive. Raises are good year to year. That's all the pros.

Cons

Company is forcing RTO. The office is dated and dull. Management doesn't really care about your opinions, they just implement what they hear from their manager, who heard it from their manager, up to the top. Work is boring. Incredibly dated tech stack (hope you like working with VB).. 60 hour weeks are not uncommon.

Pros

People SEEM nice but it's the people who aren't doing any real work.

Cons

Management and recruiting and HR are completely incompetent. They lie to you through the interview and hiring process to trick you into thinking the place is great. They lie about being able to move up and job responsibilities. No one is helpful and no one knows anything. Employees are also sexist and talk down on the petite women.

Pros

They pay for school regardless of degree type or location, compensates well. Bonus is anywhere from 25-40% of salary based on how well the company did that year

Cons

Long hours, rude people, no one knows how to communicate/ articulate themselves. No advancements with technology, they are stuck in the 1970s of ERP systems and uses ONLY excel to show KPIs. Everything is custom made macros in excel. Constantly feeling like you’re on eggshells. Clear displays of nepotism, and very biased. No clear communication of goals.
