Pros

Great people who work here and they do a great job building a culture that I want to be a part of. They are open to new ideas and are always looking to improve. There is also a very long average tenure of 10+ years.

Cons

You cannot work from home most days and they will push back even if you have a valid reason.

Pros

This company is employee owned and you receive up to 15% of your yearly salary in the company ESOP. My friend worked here for 40 years and has several million in his ESOP.

Cons

The vacation schedule isn't great.

Pros

Coworkers are always willing to help

Cons

Horrible management that wont listen to employees Horrible benefits No structure what so ever Constantly changing requirements No one knows what we do so they dont trust us, but management also doesnt care to listen to their employees so they'll never know what we do No growth, you're not allowed to do anything else other than given tasks. Work life balance is not very good as there is an overly strict/rigid requirement with no work flexibility. And so much more...
