Pros

Initially some great responses to the outbreak and the care they provided.

Cons

Added care and benefits to on-site employees stopped while at home employees are still pampered and cozy. Once mandatory quarantine in states stopped or lessened, so did the programs and initiative to make on site employees feel better. Also, the biannual merit increase seems nice until upper management & HR lies to managers about how much their reports will get and gives everyone way less than agreed. Questionable on where the money goes as yet another company puts less attention to the builders that make the product in the first place...

Pros

Great people. Good starting pay, bonus plan, 401k match. PTO is encouraged (at least by my direct management and others). Many company holidays and a Christmas shutdown that makes taking 2 weeks off very easy (using some PTO days). Lots of interesting work and projects. Lots of opportunity to be part of different project phases and responsibilites.

Cons

Lean teams means you're likely juggling more than what's preferred/reasonable. Changing priorities can make closing out tasks difficult. Annual salary increases around 3-5% are reasonable but can be underwhelming given the amount of work and stress the job typically requires. Never recieved any market adjustment (while other local companies have), larger than expected salary increases, or anything that shows above average employee appreciation regarding pay.
