Pros

Some of the clients, mid management, and co-workers are great.

Cons

There is favoritism. Some people got away with a lot because they "donated" to the company. Meanwhile, they fired a disabled Veteran, and denied him unemployment. All because the President didn't like him. Also, the President is nothing but a greedy tyrant. She makes about 250,00 a year while the rest of us made starvation wages. She claims this company is all about the "clients." But in reality, it's all about money. In fact, most of the clients hate Rise and want to leave!
