Pros

Health insurance and profit sharing are good. You work with many nice people who are creative and smart, it’s cool to see what people create out of the things we sell. There’s opportunity to create a nice culture and good place to work with the work life balance and primarily remote work schedule. The work can be repetitive and challenging at times, but working from home makes it manageable.

Cons

Hired under impression of only having in-person office days 3 days a month that would be focused on development and team building. The team building and development in the office is only an hour or 2 across the 3 days, hardly worth it but accepted. They are now changing to 3 days a week with no input from staff. The time in the office for generalists is a waste of time, the work is not collaborative, the commute is draining, and there aren’t even enough desks or conference rooms for everyone even before the new schedule. Everyone feels more productive at home, where we are chained to our desks anyways but at least save the commute time.

Pros

Profit sharing is pretty unreal, health insurance is free, and they pay for any class.

Cons

harsh performance standards + insane commute if you live in the suburbs
