Pros

Great benefits Ability to WFH

Cons

The company used to be incredible but has been in a downwards spiral for about a year now. They will say one thing and do the other, make your life miserable if you do not do as exactly as they say or if you ask any questions, and micromanage you to death. Open door policy means nothing all the way up the chain to HR. They used to care about their employees but all they care about now is profits and how their numbers look. While the pay may be enticing, it is not worth the toll on your mental health. There is very little room for advancement as they constantly hire and then fill any open positions or promote people and then let them go shortly later. While their culture looks good on paper, it is not actively practiced. There are many double standards and no transparency as well as constant lack of communication. The rebuttals are half hearted and apathetic which tells you all you need to know. They constantly have issues with vacation times being off due to lack communication between systems but will hold that against you, either taking away vacation days earned or making you work the additional hours before end of year (with little notice). If you are not a “yes” man, you will not survive here. They will also withhold bonuses you earned from the year before as they until 3 months into the new year, if the employees make it that long. Otherwise they keep the bonus even though if was due to the work you performed last year. I imagine they will push an RTO to get the rest of the people they need gone to leave.
