Pros

Working remote is the best part of this job, you could see that they're flexible with different working arrangements. But that's about where the good stops at this role

Cons

-From day one I never felt supported from management, never had 1-1 to discuss expectations just vague buzzwords & dismissiveness when reaching out for help from my manager. This leads to becoming complacent as a new hire and management just coming with a large laundry list of things to "correct" you about your role when there was no mutual understanding in the first place - There was a lack of transparency & honesty during the interview about the day to day responsibilties of the role which is marketed as a senior ANALYST position but in it's essence is just a LEVEL 1 call center support role. (which means sitting on the phones all day taking calls. Again, something that was left out in both rounds of my interviews -Previous reviews state a lack of compensation compared to market rates/ other competitors and this is very true. I received a 45% raise after leaving. -The systems used and the management style creates a culture of intense oversight & micromanagement which you WILL experience from managment as well as other teammates (Everything gets timed, even your bathroom breaks and how often you go) -They have the most confusing way to enter time worked. You have to be a rocket scientist just to understand the right way to do things. Overall- I never felt supported here & felt the dishonesty about the day-to day of the position led to a lack of confidence in the role. This alongside the intense oversight is what pushed me out.

Pros

Work life balance is okay. Hybrid schedule. Depending on your manager they can work with you. Some really great and caring people. Generous PTO.

Cons

Pay is noncompetitive. The medical benefits are pretty bare minimum. Lastly, the company morale is in the tank overall. Missed several quarterly quotas, new CEO brought in to fix things. Nobody knows where anything is headed
