My only regret is not leaving sooner

Pros

Everything looks good at first, but trust me it isn't. And if you work here and you're not a white man, you're probably being severely underpaid.

Cons

Working here was the biggest letdown of my career. I truly regret not suing for negligent misrepresentation and not leaving after 3 months, when it became clear that I was "support" to my colleagues and not given the chance to rise to the job as it was presented in my interview.

A torture chamber of toxicity

Pros

Decent base compensation Excellent 401k match with immediate vesting Adequate health insurance, but VERY high deductible

Cons

The culture here is toxic and abusive. Welcome to an employer where it's encouraged for people to yell at and insult one another! There are no opportunities for professional development or opportunities for advancement. Mediocrity is rewarded. Hitting goals doesn’t do you any favors. Just find the right person to suck up to and you’ll be fine...until someone overthrows that person. Never worked in a place that was this racist, sexist, ageist and discriminatory. From comments made about African Americans to comments about Catholics to comments about women, the discrimination goes every which way here. There is extreme hatred and resentment for anyone under 45. HR turns a blind eye or worse, they’ll find a way to punish you if you report. They have more money than they know what to do with and yet they STILL take federal funding. At a volunteer event, a senior executive told volunteers to stop working so hard because "we were packing too many meals for seniors in poverty." Shameful.
