Pros

$5000 in lifestyle benefits per year 10 mental health days 2 weeks vacation Great culture of openness and support - if you're struggling or need help with something then help is readily available Quarterly "work togethers" in remote hubs Work closely with a team Almost anyone in the company is easy to get a meeting with and open to you reaching out

Cons

Only remote work available - if that's not your thing then it might be a tough job Being on live channels (calls, chats) makes it difficult to move around during your shift Work life balance is sometimes hard to maintain depending on your shift time, some people find it difficult to disconnect

Pros

Remote first culture. If you want freedom of location and a company to truly mean and support it - this is the place.

Cons

Constant change. Nothing to hold on to in this role, compensation, KPI's, tools all change every quarter.

Pros

Great folks to work alongside. Work-life balance can be good, but depends upon the team/organization you are on.

Cons

Continuous layoffs have led to a poor work culture.
