Pros

Flexibility, can start early to get off early or start late and just work late

Cons

Many.. As a new hire std benefits specialist you will be working unpaid overtime and the company has had many lawsuits regarding this. No moving up, no continuous training, and you will be flopped to multiple managers (often time with zero experience in the role they are managing). Workers there for 4 years and had 7 different managers… so no leadership can ever actually get to know you or your skills

Pros

Strong work-life balance, supportive leadership, and a collaborative culture that feels more people-focused than many large corporations. Hybrid flexibility, solid benefits, and long-term stability make it a great place to build a career. There are also good opportunities for internal growth and cross-functional experience.

Cons

Decision-making can sometimes move slowly due to layers of process and approvals. Compensation may not always be as competitive as larger tech-focused companies, and organizational changes or transformation initiatives can occasionally create ambiguity or shifting priorities. Like many large enterprises, bureaucracy can at times impact speed and innovation.
