Pros

Easy and good stepping stone.

Cons

There’s not much growth once you get used to your role, because the company doesn’t grow. Company culture also isn’t the greatest.

We appreciate you sharing your perspective. A lack of clear growth is not aligned with our culture—specifically our commitment to Partnership and Commitment. If someone feels they do not have a path forward, then we have not done our job as leaders. Over the past five years, we have placed a much stronger emphasis on developing our people by giving them real responsibility, expanding their roles, and creating opportunities to grow within the company. We believe that Pride in our work includes investing in the people doing that work. We are continuing to build more structure and clarity around career progression, while maintaining a performance-driven environment where individuals who take ownership can advance. Your feedback highlights an area we have worked to improve and will continue to prioritize.
