Pros

Nice office environment. Many good people who have worked for McKinstry long term. Ability to work remote in some positions

Cons

Zero training Poor management. HR is non-existent. No support or assistance Don't expect actual job to be consistent with job description. Its a box of chocolates.... you have no clue what you're going to get. Actual benefits are based on your manager, don't trust that the corporate benefit package peddled by HR is actually what you will get. Lack of professionalism Lack of Discipline Curated culture seems great on the surface but in reality this is a large corporation. Don't expect real culture or relationships. People are here to get ahead and maximize their own comfort and ease, that's it. I would not recommend this company to a friend and regret wasting the little time I was employed here.

Pros

Flexible schedule, good benefits, good work environment. Like I said in the headline, a good place to earn a paycheck. I did it for quite some time and tolerated the cons much longer than I would have in most places.

Cons

Disclaimer- these cons are not universal through the company, as is obvious in my "advice to management". Lack of mentoring and advancement opportunities, and an undesirable office location in Seattle - few walkable lunch options, impossible to run errands (doctor appt, drug store, etc.), and safety, crime, and pollution are growing concerns. There are simply better places, both physically and professionally, to work these days so I made the change.
