Pros

They are expanding their hiring to other states which means getting a diverse hiring pool. People here are nice and there has been some great in-house tech built out.

Cons

That being said, if you're coming from a tech space, the culture will be jarring. I was told in my interview that the organization is flat, but the opposite couldn't be more true. It's very top-down; there's no process for requests or assistance, and the info you get will be watered down as decisions made are not transparent until you're scrambling to make it happen. There's like 50 ppl with the title AVP which tells me they care about optics for clients instead of true upward mobility for employees.

Pros

Some employees are supportive and do their best despite a challenging environment.

Cons

Highly reactive and poorly structured work environment with inconsistent direction, shifting priorities, and limited operational stability. Processes and systems are not built to support the workload, resulting in inefficiencies, repeated issues, and ongoing frustration. The handling of layoffs was particularly concerning and reflected broader leadership and cultural issues. Communication lacked transparency and professionalism. In some cases, employees had system access removed without warning while actively working, with no immediate explanation. Follow-up communication was delayed or unclear, leaving employees to determine what had happened on their own. This approach felt impersonal, disorganized, and indicative of a lack of planning and respect for employees.
