Pros

There are great UX leaders at the company who are insightful and mindful. The pay and benefits are pretty good.

Cons

The Product teams are not well organized. The products have some repetition, leading to layoffs when leadership notices and merges efforts. The software engineers I worked with were not great at defining work sets or estimating their size or length, which blew up the budget for the product I worked on. This also caused an inordinate amount of work to be piled on the Product Manager.

Pros

Remote work, yeatly raise, holiday pay

Cons

They micromanage. I realize we're remote but pretty much everything they do makes you feel like someone is watching you. They always ask if you have questions but my sup gaslights and blows me off. They try extremely hard to penalize you but mgmt can say or do anything they want and then when you bring it up they say 'no that didn't happen' or 'no we didn't say that.' Also as a csr we have rude clients daily with no self control or phone manners but we are expected to be perfect.
