Pros

Discounted genealogy accounts and DNA testing.

Cons

Very political and unfriendly. Passive aggressive leadership that only advocate for those in the right "clique". Feeling alone when you are surrounded by that many people is part of the culture. If you want to have face to face interaction - this is not the place. You can be sitting right next to someone and they'd rather instant message you. All about leveraging themselves to be part of the "Yes Man" group and do not show care and compassion for others.

Great company culture, supportive team, smooth onboarding process, strong career stability, and meaningful work. My interview experience was very positive, and the recruiting and onboarding teams were helpful, responsive, and professional throughout the process.

Cons

There is always a learning curve when joining a new company, especially while understanding internal systems and processes, but the team has been very supportive.
