Business Outlook

Pros

Diversity and inclusion are highly valued and there are a lot of initiatives and groups that promote community and engagement

Cons

Low pay is not even close to being competitive or at market average. 30 minute lunches. A lot of roles are being moved to the offshore office in India and US employees are being laid off or having their job converted to some kind of service / phone role

Business Outlook

Pros

Not hard to get hired here because of turn over rate Only 1 day in office

Cons

HEAVY on micromanaging so be prepared to be watched like a hawk Big on favoritism for higher roles and promotions Training is wayyyyyy too short and they will throw you to the wolves with very little help Too many very minor mess ups, even early on, and they will fire you Hire management that has no idea how to actually help you in your role New CEO has completely shifted everything and now a horrible company to work for Do not pay enough for the amount of work they put you through, will be given multiple extra task over and over with no extra pay
