Pros

Very relaxed environment. I've advanced my career exponentially since starting, you just have to ask, apply and be ambitious. Love my co-workers. Overall a great company!

Cons

Bennefits are good but I am astounded that they don't offer Short Term Disability. This company is run & ruled by men... apparently it's not important for women to get paid on maternity leave. They require you to use ALL of your vacation and sick time instead, which is pretty insane considering you'll need some when you come back. Can be slow to change as 'the board' has to vote for everything and they always vote no. Not many corporate perks because it's not a corporation!! haha.

Pros

Good benefits. Hard to get fired. Opportunities to learn if so inclined. Some great lower level people who make the place go. Find a manager and play the political game. You won’t have to work. Some employees have light workloads and can get away with not doing much

Cons

Upper management is disingenuous. HR takes the side of management in all matters. Political environment with cliques. Dysfunctional practices and an inability to hear feedback. Self defeating practices. They increased the amount of upper management by maybe 50% during Highleys tenure while cutting down on employees and benefits to cut rates which did not happen. No pension for new hires. Have lost numerous members due to exits and more have announced. They plan to supplement loss of members to serve data centers. Overall not a good recipe for success
