Pros

- Matched 401k at 6% along with an additional 3% - High barrier to entry type of organization

Cons

Work culture was extrememly toxic & very traditional. Lots of blame if something goes wrong but takes credit when everything goes right. Executives, leaderships, and bosses all share the same principle of "I'm your boss" and try to just dictate instead of lead, sometimes leading through fear. I've even heard of people who heard in their first week that they might already put them on a performance improvement plan for "positive motivation" like what???

Pros

Somewhat free to work autonomously and work the best way you can without too much intervention from senior leadership.

Cons

Enough is almost never enough so very little job satisfaction.
