Poor senior leadership

Pros

Great pay and great coworkers

Cons

The most senior leaders in marketing have been with the company for a long time and are not very strategic. Same old same old stuff. Not in touch with their employees.

Good luck with salary increases

Recommend

Pros

You get two 15 minute breaks, 30 minute lunch, and PTO (but good luck trying to use the PTO). Health insurance is decent. Training is great. The team is very big.

Cons

You do not get any real salary increases, so expect to keep making about what you started off with. It is based off your performance- which totally makes sense. My performance review was about perfect from my manager, but even then my salary increase was pennies (I’m actually making less than I did last year due to benefits increasing). I’m actively searching for a new job because with inflation, I can’t keep up. I do like working here for the most part. I don’t mind all the hard work we do but I wish we got compensation for it. There’s also a lot of favoritism within the ABA team.
