Pros

As a mutual, one of benefits is that the organization can stay insulated from market factors or financial induced mishaps. Thus folks that would be held accountable at a publicly traded organization are given a pass.

Cons

Leadership team has not been transparent with existing remote employees workforce (~40%) that career mobility is not possible for either a promotion or lateral move unless you are willing to be hybrid and relocate to Boston or Springfield area. Thus anyone not local is stagnant in their careers.

Great programs for experience in fortune 100.

Pros

Some of the benefits are great.

Cons

There appears to be a significant issue with favoritism and conflicts of interest within certain areas of the organization. In some cases, close personal relationships between managers and employees seem to influence opportunities, recognition, and how people are treated. This creates a perception that being part of an inner circle is valued more than performance, accountability, and doing quality work. Employees who are not part of these groups can feel excluded, overlooked, or treated differently. There are also concerns about inconsistent standards, where certain individuals appear to have more flexibility or latitude than others.
