Not too bad

Pros

Good people, Cafe in building. Direct managers are very respectful and caring. Work is not all that challenging, but there can be a lot of things at once to juggle.

Cons

Expectations constantly growing with no pay to compensate. Management wants the same thing 20 different ways, so the work is repetitive. Finance is the go to for many business tasks that don't have a lot to do with finance.

Pros

Worklife balance is respected. You are able to take PTO as a right.

Cons

They lean more into process and red tape first. When it comes to ambiguous situations or unknowns my past team did not take that well and projects often stalled or showed no progress. No room to grow and promotions was rare.
