Pros

M-F work schedule Pay and Benefits

Cons

As the company continues to expand, the visionary company I started with has started to follow a corporate path that has eliminated many of the reasons I started with Gusto. Workloads and expectations can be very overwhelming and there is a yearly PTO Pause that is in effect every year from mid December to mid February. This means no time off through the Holidays. This is stated in the job descriptions, however it is a con for me personally. Also, there are shift bids multiple times a year which is required. This can mean that throughout the year, you may work up to 4 different schedules.

Pros

- Fully remote - No micromanagement - Plenty of resources to do the job properly - Great coworkers

Cons

- Once you've hit the cap of your pay grade scale, all you have to look forward to is RSUs. - Constant changes by management. - Production goals are difficult to meet. - Some mandatory meetings feel completely unnecessary. - Workload is shuffled around constantly, so you may end up being assigned issues that were incorrectly worked by a different specialist and have to invest more time to resolve an issue. This plays heavily into production goals being difficult to meet. - Having to deal with multiple managers.
