Great place, but not a Vertical Movement Company

Pros

Great working team, great C-Suite team, pay is ok based on position.

Cons

Title changes are not a position change, they are just a bit of glitter. Since its not a Position change, there is no financial bump. Still working through the acquisition, so that may be why. But change needs to happen
