Pros

The culture and employee focused environment is amazing. From child/family friendly schedules to lunch time yoga offerings, POET works to make sure the whole employee is considered. They offer great benefits, great pay, and everyone who works here really tries to work together to get the job done.

Cons

If you want to work remote/slack off, this is not a place that would work for you. Good news is for everyone else that means your workload is equal to any other persons instead of having to carry the weight of those who are unhappy.
