Pros

Work from home Decent salary Mostly left alone by management

Cons

Very poor middle management Completely disconnected executive leadership Risk taking is highly discouraged. "Getting along" is far more important than profits.

Pros

Great company, everyone was very welcoming and accommodating. Management was pretty laid back but still expected results. This role was remote btw.

Cons

No bad things to say

Pros

Work from home is only pro

Cons

So many issues. No raises. Layoffs everywhere. When those happen you have to do extra work (no additional pay) Toxic culture Leaders are DINOSAURS who should be cut. C suite delusional on growth expectations Run away from this place and don’t ruin your career.
