Pros

Yearly company trip that seems to be going to worse locations year by year. No others that I have seen

Cons

24/7 work schedule, astronomically expensive health insurance. Zero training for teams that have to support products the company sells. If you want to get trained you will need to do it from YouTube videos and expected to be an expert the next time an issue arises. Forget about career advancement. Not to mention ZERO raises. Been here for years and have not received a penny raise. Instead insurance now is close to 20k out of pocket per year. Consider that a pay cut

Pros

Going from a toxic employer to AHEAD has been the best change for my happiness. Everyone at AHEAD is motivated, positive, and willing to help each other. I no longer dread logging into work, and even enjoy the days where I have to work a bit longer or go the extra mile, because I know it will be appreciated and I can take the time I need in return. Having unlimited PTO you don't get shamed for using is amazing. I've been supported in my efforts and have a lot of autonomy without micromanagement, which is a great feeling. Upper management really trusts you and trusts in the hire.

Cons

While being in a high-growth company is exciting, it can also be exhausting. Sometimes you need the "rocket ship" to take a beat, but there is no real lull. More company-wide time off would be helpful so that you can get a break where you don't come back to 50+ emails per day. The only other downside is that due to the fabulous employee retention, people stay in their roles for a looong long time. There are not a lot of opportunities for upward mobility as a result, from what I have seen thus far.
