Pros
- Decent salary if you’re just starting out and have no kids or major financial responsibilities - “take it or leave it” type of benefits (coffee machines, socials, gym) mostly just meh on impact - personal office space - lax dress code
Cons
- promotion is not based on performance. I was outperforming my peers and promotions were a time based thing NOT performance. Was doing significantly more than when I first started for a period of time without increase in pay. When I brought this up I was told to “be patient” - too many good people who genuinely like the company are terrified they will get fired on a whim mostly because it has happened in the past with mass firings - horrible maternity leave and benefits. I’m still on my parents but was intrigued to see if it was something I could look into to start getting on my own… well let’s say I’m still on my parents. Crazy expensive! Maternity leave is very poor for a company with “lactation rooms” - you’ll get better benefits if you quit and work at Starbucks for a little - managers aren’t allowed to tell you if you’re on track for a promotion or not - hard to use skills for a different job
