Pros

Nice office. good benefits. stable company. Really cares about customers.

Cons

Very political. Senior leadership (HR, CIO) does not care about employees as concerns brought up are ignored or deemed not priority. Most good talent has already left. Pays below market. The Austin Engineering org used to be one of the best places to work, now it’s a shadow of what it was.

Pros

There were no pros at all.

Cons

My experience at the Frisco location was largely negative due to the store leadership team, headed by Stacie Sorenson. I found the management approach to be unsupportive and at times created a stressful work environment. I often felt singled out and treated differently because of my background and appearance, which made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome during my internship. Pay was not competitive compared to similar employers. Scheduling was often inconsistent and difficult to plan around. In my experience, HR tended to support store leadership rather than adequately addressing employee concerns. The quality of the internship experience varies greatly depending on the store and management team. There can be resentment from some employees toward interns, particularly from those who were interested in the program but were not selected. Communication, mentorship, and support were not at the level I expected from a company that promotes its internship program so heavily.
