Pros

Benefits for coworkers who work 20-35 hours a week. PTO and Sick Time even for level 1 coworkers (12-19 hours a week) Coworkers are generally nice and you will make friends easily.

Cons

Completely disorganized environment. Customers are awful. Bad management, especially in sales - you will suffer except for the one or two good people. Awful hours and schedule, and no one cares to help you fix it.

Pros

I have a very empathetic and flexible manager. Although I do meet the requirement to be in office three days a week many others do not and don’t seem to suffer for it. My work can be challenging at times, but due to the slow pace of most things here I rarely feel overwhelmed.

Cons

This is, without equivocation, the most sclerotic organization I have ever been a part of. The management structure and reporting lines are inscrutable and even after 3 years I barely understand how my team fits into the larger picture. My job is a data role, and although getting access to data has improved somewhat, it is still one of my biggest blockers.
