Pros

Part of a solid team, great work-life balance, and interesting projects to work on if you apply yourself. Also having unlimited PTO is quite nice.

Cons

No food accommodations, office space is not the best, could use a remodel. Suspended 401k and STIs indefinitely because the company is losing money.

Pros

- The company itself is doing well financially, allowing departments to take on bigger projects - Great work-life balance culture and unlimited PTO that actually allows for generate usage - Casual culture that encourages collaboration - Non-salary benefits are strong, with even lower-level employees benefiting from the stock purchase plan

Cons

- Despite its strong position, the company does trim headcount for the sake of efficiency - Work ethic seems complacent, but is offset by company's strong financial standing - Management can be cut-throat, but strong performers usually do well - Salaries are below market rate
