Pros

- People, people, people - great teams of hard working people - Culture - fun, laid back, but professional environment - Overall benefits package is decent - it's the cash compensation that is well below market - Company is growing and has a good outlook

Cons

- Need to focus on work/life balance - even salaried employees are treated more like hourly in terms of punching the clock of when they need to be there. - Ironically, there is no career path in HR - what they call the career path is basically a joke, it doesn't make sense to anyone, and no one even uses it. We are HR, we can do better. - There is no pay scale, no way to measure against like employees. It's essentially a "everyone gets what they get" situation, no logic and no consistency. And they pay below market across the board, not just in HR - Start to think outside of the box in allowing employees to work from home where their jobs allow - There have been a ton of major changes to HR this year, need to get a handle on all of the changes and communicating what the future vision of the team is.

Pros

Not much that I can think of, would say its decent pay but they move the goal posts on goals every year so once you get comfortable with your goals and achieving your target to them hitting the reset button and back to square one

Cons

The culture has shifted in a very negative direction. Top performers can still feel boxed in by limited growth opportunities, changing expectations, and compensation structures that do not always reflect actual performance. There is a heavy focus on control, office attendance, and short-term metrics, while trust and morale continue to decline. It can feel political, exhausting, and disconnected from the people actually driving results. Very toxic for capacity reps, they do everything wrong and contstantly are the whipping posts for commercial teams who are always in the right
