Pros

Good benefits Lots of time off Flexible hours Can work remote during bad weather

Cons

Managers overwork employees Large on favoritism Backstabbing management Unstable employees are not disciplined HR is a joke, multiple employees report managers who are not reprimanded for bad treatment and behavior toward their employees Turnover is huge in finance, no one trains employees and expect them to know what they’re doing I could go on

Pros

Coworkers are people who make the time go by faster.

Cons

The pay is really low compared to everything on the market, yet they claim competitive pay. They do the bare minimum for employee benefits. The dental and health care are also not ideal plans.
