Pros

The usual pros that come from working for a corporation: Good compensation Benefits Bonus bank (OT converted to vacation) Paid time off

Cons

The founders are extremely hesitant to accept policy changes. This ages the company and reveals the resistance to growth here. For example the work from home policy. It doesn’t matter if the site is exceeding expectations from home they really just want people in office. They seem to adapt fairly well to the industry when they notice they need a new product, but the company’s policies are as old as the founders. Which would be fine if they had employees they started with. However, they don’t and the issue with not changing with the times is the long term retention of the zoomer/millennial employee. Once we understand this then we can see the underlying issue here… retaining the Fastie with 2-5 years of experience with the company. They work you hard and they pay you on par with the industry (they would disagree, but I’ve interviewed at enough places to know better) and that would be fine and dandy. However, they don’t take into account the employees opinions on their policies. Zoomers/millennials want to be heard… Coming up on 2 years of working here it has been a relatively great experience, but it’s already starting to feel less than a great experience. Which might make me sound greedy for wanting a great experience, but I spend 8 hours of my day doing gentax….. something that is a nontransferable skill. I should love what I do, so let’s keep it that way! I want to be a 5 year or 10 year fastie, but if you don’t look out for the little guys (us) you’ll keep losing the experienced fasties faster than you can hire.

Pros

-great coworkers -health insurance covered

Cons

It’s so sad to see where this company is headed. Two years in a row of bait and switch annual adjustments; this year the majority of the company got raises that did not even keep pace with inflation. There is no incentive to work hard anymore, as you will receive a worse raise then someone mediocre who’s willing/able to move. No upwards mobility. Your career will be stagnant. Benefits are slowly being gutted. As tech you are on call 24/7/365 and depending on your site you could be called constantly in the middle of the night. Sexism and harassment are not handled appropriately by HR.
