Pros

Decent pay and benefits, employee stock purchase...

Cons

The fed unit was terribly broken and run even worse. Bait and switch with the job description and interview. Spent 4 months trying to get numerous, solvable issues with practice and management on-site sorted by leadership. Zero interest in changing anything for the better. Left due to this and the heavy handed culture to keep the contract money flowing rather than improve and excel. Unacceptable.
