Pros

They will not force you to cut off any of your fingers, toes, arms or legs to work here.

Cons

Terrible communication between employees and HR department. Worst on-boarding experience of my life. Received first pay check much, much later than promised. Cannot believe anything told to you by upper management of company.

Pros

Great culture at the peer to peer level. Excellent learning opportunities, good benefits and great name for resume.

Cons

Pretend to be transparent but a lot of smoke & mirrors. Significant cuts to comp plans & commissions that resulted in challenging pay cuts. While salaries were not reduced the OTE is no longer achievable and it’s a difference of thousands monthly, can’t even sell stock because it’s tanked. That being said, we’re disappointed in comp and stock but grateful to be employed because It’s no longer a matter of if you’ll be laid off but when.
