Pros

Flexible work, in theory.- Depends on your manager, who will defer to their director - so good luck. Benefits are fine - healthcare plans have high deductibles, especially if you are on a family plan. 401k is average - they prefer to match with HDR stock instead of cash so you should hope the company does well.

Cons

The pandemic has brought out their true colors. Little support from management, and many decisions are coming out of Corporate in Omaha where the pandemic as a whole is not being taken seriously. So worried about "losing control" of their employees, they are forcing everyone back into the office even as cases are beginning to skyrocket. Nothing is being taken into consideration with regards to employee effectiveness at home - they just need to be able to see you are *in office*. Very, very old school mentality.

Pros

Culture, schedule flexibility, depending on management, remote work, and employee owned, okay benefits

Cons

Parking sucks. The office is in downtown so you have pay just about any where you park. Work is repetitive or stagnant sometimes.

Fantastic teamwork. The Coastal Group is very close and highly collaborative. There is a lot of support from upper management in the Coastal Group. Lots of projects lined up.

PTO and Sick Leave are tied together.
