Pros

Some co-workers are great.

Cons

Almost everything- the company is still in the old ages particularly the field staff is still operating as the old “boys” club. Some field office don’t even hire women in either internal and external sales positions yet the company markets as being a great job for women.

Pros

Base salary is standard within the industry and the benefits package is strong. The annual bonus is a genuine differentiator in total compensation. The work itself offered real opportunities to build technical skills, particularly for those in data and analytics roles, with access to projects that should have a meaningful business impact.

Cons

Organizational restructuring has been a recurring theme, creating uncertainty around team stability and long-term role security. Communication from senior leadership during periods of change was inconsistent, making it difficult to plan or feel confident in the direction of the company. Employees may find themselves in limbo when priorities shift at the leadership level.
