Pros

healthy work life balance, flexible PTO plan made it very easy to arrange schedule around childcare and medical care. 401k plan is generous, day to day work is usually friendly and cooperative

Cons

management communication could be confusing and contradictory, no room for upward growth, even taking financial breakdown of good benefits into account pay is not competitive to other companies

Pros

Paternity/maternity leave, flexible PTO, 401k

Cons

Verbally abusive managers, racist and sexist employees, salaried meaning no overtime pay, constant weekend work, unrealistic deadlines, obvious favoritism for certain teams, no work-life balance (emails from managers are from all hours of the day), dismissive HR, those with Masters degrees are subjected to entry level positions with no ability to advance their careers, pay under the national average, and overall an unwelcoming environment.

Pros

Great team of people but they are all fired now. Benefits were excellent but that was too good to be true since they couldn't really afford it in the first place. "unlimited PTO" but that was a joke since people were abusing that privilege. Work place was a ghost town half the time.

Cons

Very very very unorganized. Horrible onboarding with zero structure on day to day tasks. Leadership positions were gone half to time and lack of communication was difficult to complete the day-to-day taste. Board members are a joke. They only care about themselves and not the progression of the employees or the company. Laid off more than half the staff due to financial reasons TWO WEEKS before Christmas and proceed to have a high scale Christmas party. They should be ashamed of themselves so disrespectful.
