Pros

Decent pay, great colleagues, generous PTO

Cons

I have never seen an IT group work so hard to NOT help people to do their jobs. Many requests are simply ignored and there are many IT systems that are poorly or only partiallly deployed causing communication and other technical issues. HR spends 20 minutes 4 times a year promoting their latest employee "initiatives" and the rest of the year doing the opppsite.

Really great manager. Remote work major plus. No micro management. Great pay

Annual salary increase this year isn't until September which is odd.

Pros

Strong Leadership, Fair/Average compensation, Thrive Program (company strives to keep you employeed as Sponsor reallocations occur)

Cons

HR is very hands off. It is very difficult to speak to anyone. Not simple to call and ask a question. Everything has to go through a portal. This is challenging when there is time sensitive needs. They make it work but in my opinion, this is a 'con'.
