Pros

Only benefits, oh and also if you like privacy for taking naps on the job, taking excessively long lunches and being able to get away with doing nothing like most people here.

Cons

Senior/upper management all need to be fired. There should be a review of all management each year by employees. You’d find out why the turnover rate is sitting at 33%(30+ people quit this year..so far). How we’ve lost so many key players and they don’t rehire. They will roll their job over to you(with no additional pay!). Should make people wonder why so many people are quitting.. ah I know! Extremely low pay! Getting super overloaded with work-then telling your bosses and they do.. guess what.. NOTHING...but give you more work :)!

Pros

9/80 work schedule. Benefits are decent. One of the few comapnies that offer a pension in addition to 401k.

Cons

Too many management layers. Promotions seem to be based on who you know, and if you fit into the right "clique". Some promotions are being given to managers with no experience in the function. Executuve leadership appears out of touch with their employees. Example - Chaotic games have been played the last 3 years with remote and hybrid work policies.
