Pros

Great campus and employees who care. Positive work life/balance

Cons

If possible, avoid working in operations and specifically supply chain. The organization has gone under new leadership that’s doesn’t align with the companies overall cultural. Recommend considering other companies if pursuing a career in supply chain or operations as they only hire external candidates and don’t promote from within often.

Pros

Good work-life balance with flexible scheduling

Cons

Over the past several years, the company has lacked a clear long-term strategy, resulting in frequent reorganizations, shifting priorities, and multiple rounds of layoffs. Decision-making often feels reactive rather than strategic, creating uncertainty and making it difficult to execute long-term plans. Internal processes can also be overly complex, slowing down work and reducing efficiency.
