Pros
The overall purpose to improve oral health and confidence in the smile is always a wonderful thing to work towards. At the heart, I believe this is why employees continue to work so hard. You get to work with some amazingly talented people who care about the work they do. Benefits are decent and pay is above average for most fields. While this is a pro, it’s also a handcuff to keep you. There is always something to be done so you get many opportunities to strengthen skillsets and be introduced to things that make a nice resume booster.
Cons
This place has drastically changed in my time of working here. RTO requiring 5 days in office with no supporting evidence of increased productivity. None of the flexibility promised for those who are caregivers or have lives outside of work. Layoffs happen like an annual holiday, so go ahead and pencil in the entirety of your Q4 for “tentative”. Good luck if you’re spared, but congrats — you’re going to absorb the work of everyone who left. Too many cooks in the kitchen on nearly everything you’ll work on. Conflicting feedback from management and upper management. Urgency is emphasized to everything even if you are already handling a full load. Only for there to be no action or feedback when you deliver. The urgent thing is now a blink in the past. Lots of additional responsibilities with no additional pay or title and little transparency around how to move up.
