Pros

Great people and great mission. Pay and benefits are solid.

Cons

Senior management likes to make broad decisions without any input from people that do the work. Things like "this structure will work great for you" or "AI or a new tool is how we will do this task" when they actually have no idea what the team does in their daily work.

Great company culture, supportive team, smooth onboarding process, strong career stability, and meaningful work. My interview experience was very positive, and the recruiting and onboarding teams were helpful, responsive, and professional throughout the process.

Cons

There is always a learning curve when joining a new company, especially while understanding internal systems and processes, but the team has been very supportive.
