Pros

I really feel like what we do helps move the world in a positive direction by helping people realize how interconnected we all are.

Cons

Sometimes the bean counters make decisions that seem penny wise and pound foolish. Or at least the rationale is not explained to us worker bees.

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.
