Pros

I worked with a fantastic team who deeply cares about the work we did and each other. We bonded on how much we survived our extremely toxic and abusive manager.

Cons

How much time do we have? Low pay and compensation plan. Other depts got credit for our sales which provided them higher commissions while ours was bare minimum. Saw and experienced inappropriate and unethical behavior. Very toxic environment. Their processes are still in the 20th century, Excel order forms, paper applications that are then faxed in, and more.

Pros

Remote work and the clients are very nice to work with.

Cons

In my experience, the company's compensation practices lacked transparency and accountability. When employees asked questions about how their earnings, bonuses, or compensation were calculated, clear answers were often difficult to obtain. Decisions affecting employee pay were made without adequate explanation, and requests for clarification frequently went unresolved. What I found particularly concerning was the apparent disconnect between employee compensation outcomes and management compensation. Employees regularly experienced reduced bonuses or earnings, while management and executive leadership appeared largely unaffected by the same business decisions. This created the perception that the financial impact of those decisions was being borne primarily by employees rather than those making them. After repeatedly seeking explanations and receiving few meaningful answers, I lost confidence in the fairness and transparency of the compensation process.
