Pros

Great Benefits Great Pay Great PTO/Paid holidays Work-life balance a plus

Cons

Growing tremendously as a company, but some departments are still trying to operate as mom'n'pop. They make sure they hire their friends and family. Overlook qualified applicants or those that may be hard workers for unqualified/inexperienced friends and family. Literally, same household. It is definitely known throughout the department with non-friends/family those friends/family who are promoted and/or given praise but barely put in the work or have no clue what they are supposed to be doing. However, If they know, they are just getting by. Overwhelming workload at times, but that is with any company.

Pros

I can't think of one

Cons

Too many acquisitions in a very short period of time--20 in 2 years? Not enough time between acquisitions to bring everyone up to speed. Inferior health insurance. Most acquired employees lose over a year of bonus and/or raises. C-suite is a boys club--all male and friends from former companies. Newly acquired employees who can bring a lot to the table are discounted giving preference to older employees acquired previously. Permissive PTO is a joke. I had a solid 6 weeks of PTO prior to being acquired but haven't been able to take the 6 weeks since joining symplr. Employees hired either through a former acquisition or otherwise are condescending and unhelpful. Having to work up to 16 hours a day or work all weekend leaves ZERO work/life balance. CEO says talk to your manager if you are working too many hours. Yeah, right. Talk to your manger and she/he says "deal with it."
