Pros

Base pay + salary are decent

Cons

Everything else. If you aren’t drinking the company kool aid, you’ll be working everyday on edge wondering how long you’ll be employed with them. Poor training and lack of communication. When you confront higher ups and HR about any confusion or grievances you may have, they fake sympathize with you and refuse to listen — and always give you some generic corporate response as to why things are the way they are.

Pros

The pay. Pay and benefits are the reason to work anywhere, but especially MCM.

Cons

No support or accommodations for disability. They WILL find a reason to fire you if you request disability accommodation that isn't extremely convenient for the higher-ups.

Pros

The compensation is amazing, and the people you work with are typically very smart and kind, especially the individual contributors.

Cons

I have worked for five different companies, and this one by far has the worst culture. It’s only a matter of time before you get fired. The owners have designed it to be a revolving door, aiming to burn people out and extract as many ideas as possible. Unfortunately, this industry and these roles are not rocket science, so they gain no real benefit from treating people so poorly or firing so many employees constantly. You will always see job postings for this company because either everyone gets fired or they quit due to the toxic culture. The money is simply not worth the stress.
