Pros

The office environment is very welcoming and people have been very helpful as I have settled into my new role. I have only been at the company for 2 weeks, but already have a basic understanding of my responsibilities and what my day-to-day responsibilities are. From day one I was trusted with tasks and my input is valued in team meetings.

Cons

People here are very driven to succeed and it seems like most people view this office as a stepping stone to make it to their next career move. That said, many people do stay within the company for many years. On another note, it has taken some time getting all of the proper login credentials and onboarding in general ( I am sure that is the same at most companies of this nature).

Good Place to Start, Don't Stay Long

Pros

The best part about working here is the flexible work schedule and work from home option. The people are also great. It's a good place to start your career but don't stay longer than 2 years.

Cons

Raises are awful (even with promotions and high scoring reviews) and they blame it on the profit for that year but then you find out what new people hired make and what males in the same positions make. There also isn't always a clear career path.

Thanks for the review! We're glad to hear that working from home and flexible schedule are seen as benefits. As you can imagine though, decisions with raises are never easy.
