Pros

Used to be remote company. Maybe a good first job to get your foot in door to corporate

Cons

Mandatory 5 day RTO within 50 miles implemented when company was remote pre- covid. Poorly communicated the need for change, did not offer flexibility when several employees were hired remote to begin with. Has a product called "employee voice" but did not take into consideration their employees voice when making sweeping changes to company culture, schedule, etc. Pay is minimal in operations. Have seen many other companies pay better for same job. Company felt ahead of its time, progressive and interesting. Now it appears to be pivoting back in time to old school controlling corporate culture.

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.
