Pros

Great benefits, but that have been cutting back over the years . Co-workers are nice.

Cons

Senior management including the CEO micromanage. They keep important decisions to themselves so the rest of the team is working on things they shouldn't or they do the work themselves and don't tell their team do there is a lot of duplication of effort. The Marketing team gets the brunt of a lot of this. They are expected to do a lot of work the Sales team should be doing (Sales not accountable to know the products). In 2019 most of the marketing staff quit. Instead of replacing Marketing Managers they brought in Assistances or Associates so more work got dumped on to the Managers. I feel bad for one manager, she went on medical leave/STD/FMLA and they ended up letting her go after a few weeks of being on FMLA. I thought FMLA was to protect employees but I guess they just don't care about them. They also run very lean with little chance of advancement. They speak a lot about their values but it really only pertains to some people, the ones hand picked to advance in the company.

Pros

Good health insurance and PTO. I enjoyed working with my peers.

Cons

Depending on what manager you get, watch out. HR sweeps all complaints under the rug when a manager is considered "indispensable". Complaints not just by me, but an ENTIRE TEAM. A manager who completely lacks people skills, only technical ones, shouldn't even be a manager.
