      Pros

      Great team. Free coffee when the coffee machine works.

      Cons

      Since the company has gone public, the culture has changed drastically. It was once a company that felt like family but no longer feels that way. Employees are treated like numbers, and only recognized if they are well liked by management, or willing to sacrifice their personal time/families to work longer hours. "Perks" are not given on an equal basis or based on performance in any way. The regions are not streamlined in their processes or practices, and everything is left up to the personal discretion of a disengaged and far removed director.

      Work remote. Fantastic leaders, Definitely a place I have enjoyed working.

      Cons

      Pay is slightly less than competitors but work life balance and culture make up for it.

      Pros

      Great benefits; 90% of the ppl that worked there were the best and really did great work.

      Cons

      Made employees choose between having MLK Day off or Juneteenth- both which are federally recognized holidays. Excuse was that our customers are open on those days so we need to be open. So as a company, we had to pick which would be a paid holiday and everyone chose Juneteenth because it was in the summer. I think we got a floating holiday to use for any other holiday we wanted off that wasn’t recognized by the company. As you can imagine, this racism was prevalent in management/leadership. My team was the most diverse team and we all got restructured/laid off. There’s a lot of ego and control issues in this company, especially in Talent Acquisition.
