Pros

Great benefits The people I work with make going to work enjoyable

Cons

Annual reviews have resulted in only minimal increases to my base pay. I’ve been with the company for several years, and my compensation has barely increased considering the time, effort, and work I’ve consistently put in. I also know someone in a similar field who is earning the same amount in an entry-level position, while I’m in a higher-level role and have been with the company much longer. My manager makes it unnecessarily difficult to work remotely, even though my responsibilities can be completed entirely from my laptop. I don’t understand why there is so much resistance when the nature of my work clearly allows for that flexibility
