Pros

Two weeks off at the end of year

Cons

I was in one of the ERGs (Employee Resource Group) that tried to promote awareness and understanding of different cultures and backgrounds. After getting initial approval, we had an event that included religious background. Flyers were put up. An employee complained and the company forced us to cancel the event. The event was voluntary and was only to provide cultural context and not to promote a religion. From that point on I no longer wanted to work for the company. I was volunteering my free time to do all this, trying to promote diversity and inclusion because I thought the company cared but they did not. I was told we no longer discussed religion at these events. How can you promote diversity and inclusion without discussing religion? On top of this hypocrisy, every Christmas they would decorate the street entrance with the nativity scene for all to see. Tell me how this is not religious? Anyway I no longer work at this company and I’m glad to be gone. Have fun pretending to care diversity and inclusion.

Pros

Remote Work, Flex Schedule, Benefits are decent enough.

Cons

It is very much a boys club between management, leads, and HR. HR is there to protect the company, not you. The moment you have something crazy happen (and you will because most people in positions of power are old retired navy guys who cant even work a computer usually and would rather praddle on about "the good ole days") and you report it to HR, you immediately will be retaliated against, even when HR says you wont. Its tough to say how you wont when they immediately inform your supervisor. I also hate how they are an "inclusive" company, and yet I have been called more slurs and received more backlash for being LGBT when its not even being presented, I just want to log in, work, ask questions, log off.
