Pros
-We are employee owned, the shareholders are the employees, I cannot overstate how valuable that is when it comes to peace of mind for a long term career. No one is going to just up and buy us out. -My team and the people I work with are solid gold. We've had some bad apples over the years, and they do not last. -This industry has been labled as "recession-proof" and we weathered the pandemic recession extremely well with minimal layoffs. We've rehired some of the lay-offs. -This company is growing and becoming a better version of itself every year. -I feel seen, safe, and listened to every day.
Cons
-Return to office started being a thing. I work 5 days a week from the office so it doesn't effect me, but half my team is hybrid or remote and we get our work done. I don't think return to office ever needs to be a thing again. -Process improvement needs work but I will say we are being heard on this and changes are happening.
