Pros

Good salary and bonus structure, excellent HQ office, modern system platform investments

Cons

I witnessed many leaders managing up to further their career. Lots of gossip and throwing people under the bus when they don't know the whole story. Promotions are spotty and can lean towards certain areas of a department. I saw no promotions within HR, except one team promoted six people in three months. Yet, my team and others couldn't get one headcount approved.

Pros

I had a great onboarding experience - my manager was very prepared with a clear and useful onboarding plan. The people have been very welcoming and the company culture is great.

Cons

The company is growing rapidly, which presents natural challenges - but the overall experience has been very positive.

Pros

Great place to work. Very considerate of actual career and life experience rather than focusing on having a degree. Management really cares about your success personally and professionally. Top-notch focus on career development. Cohesive, cooperative teams. Fair base pay for experience, good health benefits, and decent flexibility.

Cons

Your experience will be deeply influenced by which location you work at and position you work in. The company has a good framework for inclusion but in reality there are unchecked local employees who make it very uncomfortable if you can't pass for right wing. Raises are inconsistent and don't seem to be determined by performance ratings. Despite having a good review every cycle, I haven't seen so much as a cost of living adjustment post - promotion.
