Pros

company luncheons every few months (since it’s a bigger market), I have a fairly stable schedule, nice non-management co workers. I do as little as possible and act my wage.

Cons

Awful management is rewarded/issues are ignored until you threaten the company in some way, pay is not where I needs to be for the cost of living, you had “Must Runs” that are conservatively skewed and not trying to hide it, almost everyone is under contract even though this is not a beginner market. They lock you in because they know how bad people would quit if they didn’t. Many employees do not re-sign and if they do, it’s because they couldn’t get a job at the right timing or they just choose to break a contract because it’s more worth it to deal with legal issues than tolerate Incompetence decision makers.

Pros

Good benefits overall. Strong vacation and time off policies. 401k and compensation were competitive. Some teams were collaborative and supportive depending on who you worked with.

Cons

Hard to take ownership of work due to lack of trust. Ideas were often dismissed or overridden, which made it difficult to contribute effectively. As a woman, I was frequently interrupted or talked over in meetings. At times, I had to frame ideas indirectly just to get alignment, which isn’t a productive way to work. Decision-making could feel inconsistent and not always based on input from the team.
