Pros

They have great benefits and perks here. They are also a lot of events that encourages the different groups to come and network with each other. It is easily accessible through the MBTA and the work of the CEO and what he is involved with is amazing and inspiring.

Cons

They need to value their under-represented minorities more. Many of the us do not feel valued and certain issues that currently exist were not dealt with since the majority of the employees and affiliates were not under-represented. When I first started working here, I thought the culture was great but soon discovered that lots of gossip (especially in HR) and other aspects that were not great.

Pros

Benefits, such as PTO and health, are fantastic.

Cons

A pro and a con are there are rarely set ways to do things. You can pave your own way, but others could be paving a way to the same destination and just creating more paths when it would be better to work together.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We love that you feel the autonomy to pave your own way here, and recognize that also can present its own challenge with duplicating efforts.
