Most people are good people who are trying to work hard, do the right thing for safety and customer satisfaction. Good work hours Decent flexibility Decent benefits

Cons

Management shifts priorities every couple months causing serious inefficiency. Excessive schedule pressure and unrealistic expectations can cause headaches for those actually doing the work. Average compensation in a high tax, high cost of living area

Pros

Great, and I mean great benefits.

Cons

Poor local culture, everybody is in their own clicks and don't deviate from them. Not a huge amount of office friendliness. Not many team building exercises, and qa gets left out of alot. If you're not a developer, you will have a yard time socially. Coffee is the worst I've had at a company ever. Return to office was not handled right, and the wfh policies were written very vague by a local manager, but what they actually wanted was very specific and was not communicated at all(avg of 1 per month over the course of a year). This lead to a problem where I was denied a wfh request to grieve a dead pet because I used wfh 2 weeks earlier to register a new car ( that I got solely for work commute)
