Pros

This is a good place to start if you want to get your foot in the door.

Cons

Upper level management is terrible and are not held accountable for their actions. This is not the place to be if you value being treated like a human being. Yes, if you walk around the office everyone is smiling and seems to be happy but the reality is that most people are miserable. They hold monthly meetings for employees to speak freely in an open forum but ignore the fact that there are serious problems - under staffed and over managed. It's rare people stay over 2 years, and not because they are lazy, but because everyone is working around the clock and get tired of being treated poorly.

Pros

Flexible PTO, good healthcare and maternity/paternity leave plans, inflation raise each year with a bonus dependent on company profits. Supportive and friendly staff.

Cons

Mostly in-office work with one WFH day. Not many raise opportunities past the one each year to account for inflation.
