Pros

- Salary in line with the market - A friendly environment in general, you can feel it. - Travel and wellness allowance - You work at your pace, there isn't a constant pressure to reach goals. - You are expected to do your job within working hours. - Compassionate CEO (the current one), with some clear views on where we need to be within society has a company and as individuals.

Cons

- Disorganisation and politics at the highest level trickle down to teams. - Constant Re-orgs. - HR treats an employee as a number, expect nothing more and nothing less. Avoid interactions at all costs in case you have a problem (health etc etc), normally it will make things worse. If your direct supervisor has been in the company for some time he will advise you the same, if it's not a serious health problem for example. - The corporate health insurance is a horrible policy, stay clear of it. - The policy to Hybrid work, mandatory 50% of time you are expected to work from the office.

Pros

Incredible benefits! Quality, affordable medical insurance, 401k, wellness reimbursement, travel reimbursement, plenty of PTO, etc. They have fresh food cooked daily for breakfast and lunch, available for purchase. They also have free food, such as yogurt cups, cheese sticks, and shelf-stable fruits available to all employees. The benefits keep many of us here. I will say, have had two supervisors so far, and they’ve each been great. Very understanding, yet motivating. I haven’t yet met a supervisor who didn’t value their supervisees.

Cons

The main digital platforms we use do not function efficiently, which makes a noticeable impact on our work. On a perfect day, you’ll still spend 8-12 minutes per hour waiting on load screens, but we have experienced days in which the sites were down for about 6 hours within an 8 hour day. I feel that our quarterly goals are not constructed with this in mind. Another major con is—like many places now—job security is an issue. AI is taking over the job of many employees, and while we’re told to embrace it, it’s difficult to do so when you could walk in any day and be told to pack your things.
