Pros

Strong compensation and benefits package compared to many companies in Oklahoma. Opportunity to learn fast and gain exposure to product management and HCM technology at scale. Some incredibly talented peers who truly care about their work.

Cons

The culture is toxic, controlling, and fear-based. Leadership talks about “growth” but often operates through intimidation, micromanagement, and favoritism. Promotions are inconsistent and political — I was denied five times despite meeting expectations and being in the role for years, while others were promoted in under a year based solely on who they know. Burnout is normalized. High turnover isn’t addressed, it’s accepted. Innovation is stifled by leadership egos — often good ideas are ignored unless they come from the “right” person. Ten years in, I left with anxiety, CPTSD triggers, and the need to completely reset my nervous system.
