Pros

Compensation & PTO are the ONLY incentives the company has to offer.

Cons

***TOXIC environment, not worth any amount of money*** 1. Zero work life/balance - Most people are already working 40+ hours. You are then asked to be "on call" (phone on/laptop with you) during days/time off, including funerals. 2. No genuine culture - and trying way too hard to create a culture with in-house happy hours, obnoxious bday parties and sometimes free food. 3. Core values that are just not upheld or remotely acknowledged. 4. Still a startup atmosphere, so other depts will constantly battle/question your methods/processes as if they are not real.

Pros

The employees are great. Most people are very smart and passionate about what they do. In the time I was there I never had any problem working with anyone in the company. Always someone to go to lunch with and lots of staff drinks after work (mostly organized by staff and not management) Good flexibility for work-life balance...for some people

Cons

- Disorganized. - Not diverse. - No support for career advancement/training/certification/education - Totally inconsistent with a lack of focus. Strategic direction seems to change every 6 months and it never makes complete sense. - Leadership is tone deaf to the market and is not willing to adapt. Stubbornness is why nothing is selling and the company is falling apart. - Top Leadership doesn't engage with employees unless they feel like they have to. - HR is beyond useless and gossips about EVERYONE. There is no confidentiality in HR. - Lots of recent turnover with long time employees because of messed up operations and managers egos. - LOTS of people have left to go work for the founder of Kony at his new company, or they left to go back to their old jobs. - TERRIBLE operations. Travel policy is crazy!!! Some people can't afford to come out of pocekt and be reimbursed for almost everything. $7k in expenses for travel is ridiculous!
