Pros

The cafeteria food at HQ is decent

Cons

The overall company culture is bad After multiple rounds of layoffs the CEO told everyone that you should just ask people to do more work instead of hiring new people Middle management is by far the worst I have ever seen. Managers outsourcing their responsibilities to individuals on the team and micromanaging to no end. The company also used to sponsor Boise Pride, but stopped this year to fall in line with MAGA politics.

Pros

HQ building is pretty cool and you can get some neat tours of company facilities. Work life balance is generally pretty good.

Cons

The company just has no idea what its doing regarding IT. Most management has been there 25+ years and still wants to operate like its the 90s. Head of IT is an accountant and the department is treated like a necessary evil and employees are told they provide no tangible value. Making any kind of impact is actively discourage and 'stay in your lane' is a core tenet. If you want to just show up, grind, and go home, this is the place for you.
