Pros

The best part about this company is the people. There are so many knowledgeable and hardworking people. Many have worked with the company for years and years and continue to dedicate their time and service. You are able to bring your dog to work, and the interior design of the place is lovely. If you have time on Friday afternoons they have an open bar available, which is also great.

Cons

While there are so many awesome and hardworking people, the management team does not seem to notice or truly value these people. When I first started working there it was much more clear that hard work was valued, and over the years that appreciation has only begun to steadily decrease. I fear that the company is going to start losing their best and most knowledgeable people because they do not value them. The company has tried to work to better the management and structure of the company but it seems to have only gotten worse and more corporate. They have brought in a number of people who do not understand the business and are only focused on the bottom line, rather than the people. While the perks like bringing your dog to work and happy hours are nice, they are certainly at times only used to mask the stress and chaos, to convince people that it's actually a fun and exciting place to work.

Pros

The health benefits package was solid and the office environment was clean and maintained.

Cons

- I was doing the exact same work in year three that I was doing in year one, with no indication of any real progression or change. - There is no development structure, no mentorship, and no meaningful career guidance. - The work becomes a repetitive cycle of the same responsibilities with no path forward. - Repeated questions about growth opportunities were met with vague responses that led nowhere. - It became clear over time that there was no real interest in developing employees. - The company does not invest in people in any meaningful way and instead extracts work without offering growth in return. - By the end, it felt like years were spent without gaining any meaningful new skills, making the experience feel wasted.
