Pros

The company itself is great and it's a great atmosphere to work in. The work is meaningful and with a very small exception the leadership seems to respect the opinions and experience of its employees.

Cons

Not a typical proposal shop and unless something drastically changes in the leadership it won't get any better. Anyone with any real experience will likely be completely disregarded based on "experience" that is non-existent. Anyone can be replaced and if you don't fall in line you will be. Other cons, it isn't a very flexible work environment. They don't believe people can work from home successfully. That and how can you spend all day in meetings if you're at home? There is some micromanaging going on based on the leaderships professional experience.

Pros

They give you a yearly raise of 3%

Cons

Lack of Clear Leadership & Direction: Leadership often fails to communicate a clear vision or set measurable goals for the team. There are no defined expectations or guidance on how to succeed or grow within the organization. Toxic Work Culture: Open communication and constructive feedback are discouraged; raising concerns is often met with punitive responses. Fear-based management creates a culture where employees feel compelled to keep their heads down rather than collaborate or innovate. Idea Misappropriation: Some managers adopt a “seagull” approach—swooping in to take credit for others' ideas without acknowledgment. Original contributions are not consistently recognized or rewarded. Lack of Career Advancement Opportunities: There is no clear career development path or mentorship to help employees understand how to progress. Promotions and advancement appear arbitrary, lacking transparency and fairness. Poor Communication & Opacity: Major organizational decisions are often made behind closed doors with little to no communication to staff. Employees are frequently left uncertain about their role in the company’s long-term plans. Fear based leadership Disregard for Employee Value: During key transition meetings, employees were told they were “disposable,” setting a demoralizing tone. This sentiment undermines trust and long-term employee commitment. Training & Development Barriers: Getting approval for job-relevant training or courses is an unnecessarily difficult process. Requests are often met with repeated delays, excessive bureaucracy, and lack of support from leadership. Leadership Focus Misaligned: Some managers emphasize their own credentials and accomplishments rather than fostering team success or support.
