Pros
Our culture is AMAZING. I have never loved working for a company more. There is a lot of support for upward growth without supervisors feeling insecure about you increasing your skillset. I was hired on with limited knowledge and taught a lot of on the job training which has been really rewarding. The benefits are excellent and they provide company sponsored healthcare, PTO, discounts for childcare and subsidies for family care, parental leave, surrogacy and adoption assistance programs, fertility coverage, on-site fitness facilities, and mental health support. We have groups that help younger professionals find mentorship at Cirrus and pay for memberships for us to be apart of other professional working groups in Austin. I am apart of the Women’s Leadership Team and I am in many PODs that help foster growth and facilitate tough professional development conversations. Other fun perks are happy hours on Thursday or Friday that usually have a theme or charity and a Lyft credit for the entire night after so you can have a free safe ride home. There are free vending machines in every major building and huge free snack areas on every floor.
Cons
We are still in the office 2 days a week. This is necessary for my role, but not for all roles.
