Pros

Good work life balance, great benefits

Cons

terrible at mentoring and developing junior talent. Tends to protect senior leadership who are often at disparate levels of capability and aptitude for their jobs. Senior leadership are rewarded for being far more in the weeds than they should be, hindering their ability to take a strategic vantage point of the business, and creating too many layers of unnecessary approvals and decision rights for the smallest items. Many people also want to hear themselves be the smartest person in the room without actually having something pertinent to say.

Pros

Great management, people leaders! Friendly environment, reasonable expectations.

Cons

Not many cons. It would be nice to have more of a set schedule but I know that's not realistic in careers that are sales based.
