Pros

Some departments get to work from home onsite cafeteria some friendly coworkers free bagel day casual dress code

Cons

So overworked you can't help but bring your work home with you or worry about it when you are off the clock. If you take time off work it is a disaster when you come back to the office because little to no cross training. Cross training can't exist when everyone is too busy to help out but management won't hire more help. If you do a good job keeping afloat with your work duties you will only be given more but won't see an increase in your salary. Management will literally laugh in your face if you say you have too much on your plate or ask for a raise. Stress will literally make you sick working here. There is no budget for salary increases but there is a budget to hire in all the CEO's friends, give him a brand new office (when he is barely ever in house) and redo the bathrooms.

Pros

The teammates that I worked with were generally really great. Decent opportunity for learning

Cons

The benefits were not great, 3 year vesting to get a 401k match, insurance was sub par, time off was below average. In addition to this the management team is having a lot of turnover along with getting rid of people systematically (or what feels targeted). This is following some acquisitions that could have been great but because the teams are all operating in silos with what feels like no cohesive direction from the senior leadership. The products that are being sold are very old feeling/looking with no real changes on the horizon. Pair this with high level executive leadership changes that are pointing to a potential sale of the company which likely will come with more changes and loss of employment.
