Pros

Inclusive Employee stock option Tuition reimbursement

Cons

The company has lost sight of taking care of their employees. They underpay in almost every department except service and they only keep throwing money at them because they put so much work on them that nobody wants to stay. When asking for a raise it was immediately shut down because there’s no way to give a raise outside of your annual review or a promotion. The annual raise is always 3% which isn’t much when inflation is 7%. I was advised to go to service if I wanted to make more money. They also have pay transparency to make it seem like they care but in reality it’s just a reminder that you aren’t going to be paid what even they say you will. The only way to go up the different tiers is to wait it out and keep taking that 3% raise.

Work remote. Fantastic leaders, Definitely a place I have enjoyed working.

Pay is slightly less than competitors but work life balance and culture make up for it.

Pros

Great benefits; 90% of the ppl that worked there were the best and really did great work.

Cons

Made employees choose between having MLK Day off or Juneteenth- both which are federally recognized holidays. Excuse was that our customers are open on those days so we need to be open. So as a company, we had to pick which would be a paid holiday and everyone chose Juneteenth because it was in the summer. I think we got a floating holiday to use for any other holiday we wanted off that wasn’t recognized by the company. As you can imagine, this racism was prevalent in management/leadership. My team was the most diverse team and we all got restructured/laid off. There’s a lot of ego and control issues in this company, especially in Talent Acquisition.
