Pros

Hours are flexible, Starting pay is great but pay raises are slow moving from there

Cons

Very political environment, You need to say the right things and dress the right way to move up. Nothing at this company is based of how smart you are. There are a lot of dummies who are good politicians that are currently placed in high positions. Also there is prejudice environments in most areas.

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.
