Pros
Remote work is nice. Customers were great too… at least before many of them started drifting toward competitors. Pay is decent, and if you're a professional “yes” person or cruising toward retirement, you might actually enjoy the stability and perhaps some gossip (wink wink).
Cons
Where do I start? Feels like stepping into a time machine set to the 90s - same people, same egos, same ways of working. Lots of “I know a guy” hiring, so half the org feels like a friend group chat that accidentally turned into a company. The job you think you’re accepting in the interview? Yeah, that gets reinterpreted once you’re actually in it. If you’re even a tiny bit innovative or you like challenging the status quo, prepare to be quietly (or not so quietly) dragged back down. New ideas tend to die fast because they don’t fit the comfort zone of the long-timers. And despite all the talk about “digital solutions” and “building apps,” at the core it’s still the same old color personality PDF report dressed up as something more futuristic. And of course, your Insights profile becomes less of a self-awareness tool and more of a label people use to poke your supposed weaknesses. Ironic for a company built on “understanding people.”
