Pros

Growing industry, great group of employees that are dedicated, hard working, skilled and knowledgeable about the product, that are beginning to defect to other businesses.

Cons

Many - aggressive management, more aggressive executives, seems filled with masters degree which makes it hard to break into the upper echelon. Motivation is not present but an overwhelming culture of fear is. Question any decision from above you and you are executed with promptness. VP of OPs is punitive, aggressive and convinced that his way is the only way. Suggestions from employees on the firing line are cast aside. Respect isn't present. Management consists of 'yes men' that act as a tunnel for executives to implement what they want.

Pros

Work from home, flexibility, paternal leave policy, pension plan

Cons

Pay is low and has not kept up with inflation. Leadership is only DEI hires, and they do not seem to understand the actual work being done. They are making life miserable for employees by adding unnecessary KPI's and performance tracking to make a name for themselves within the senior leadership. No loyalty for employees, they will let you go in the blink of an eye if the business struggles.
