Pros

The company is full of passionate, hardworking people, offers good work–life balance in many departments, provides fair market compensation, and delivers an excellent product.

Cons

Avoid the Business Technology department. There are serious concerns about sexism and racism, limited advancement opportunities unless you fit a narrow demographic, and high turnover—five women left within a single year. PTO approvals have been rescinded months later, and the leadership team requires significant change.
