Pros

-Good PTO policy -Coworkers are generally nice and easy to work with.

Cons

-Way too many people in the upper management level. Many of them either don’t do anything or make poor and arrogant decisions. -Too much flip flopping in policy decisions. -Bad communication and direction from upper management. -Beginning to make poor hiring decisions as there’s a push to fill roles. -Pay is decent for Sioux Falls. Below average when compared to national averages.

Pros

Good culture, slow paced, no pressure, stable and job security

Cons

Not much challenge, opportunity for advancement and learning, pay is on the low end. Most of the employees live in 2nd tier cities on the east coast that are less expensive. If you live in a tier 1 city, the pay is way below industry average.
