Pros

Amazing company to work for!

Cons

Hybrid work with mandatory two days in the office per week. No ability to work full time remote. This is honestly the only "con" about this company. If you are hoping for full time remote opportunity, you won't find it here unfortunately. Hopefully that will change in the future.

Thank you for sharing your review and for your feedback on our work model. As part of our commitment to our employees, we’ve implemented a flexible, hybrid work environment which reflects a meaningful balance of in-office experiences with work that can be done virtually. The results of our recent employee experience surveys underscore the value of face-to-face interactions, which allow us to develop deeper relationships and pursue greater creativity and innovation. These in-person opportunities are critical to maintaining our strong culture. We appreciate you taking time to share your experience and are grateful you’re here supporting our mission.

Pros

A great work environment backed by a great mission. The company and its leaders truly care about military personnel and their families, our field employees, and our home office employees. We have many events for home office employees that allow them to interface with their colleagues and step away from their desk. Because of our hybrid business model, employees that have a job that allows them to can work from home a few days out of the week. Many people that work here have been here for many, many years - this speaks volumes about the company's performance and rich culture that is so evident.

Cons

Sometimes seen as a negative, a hybrid business model means that employees are expected to come in an average of two days a week. We are also employee owned, meaning when the economy and financial market are down, bonuses suffer.
