Pros

--Great starter job for experience/career building --Personal life flexibility. Company is understanding of the Pandemic and is supportive of personal issues outside of work. --Possible Hybrid (Upon returning to the office) --Giving Free mental days (Periodically)

Cons

--Micro Managing at its best!!! -- (Forget the free lunches) Judging by the Glassdoor reports--Some employees are still receiving the perks. Used to receive free lunch. Now we have to attend a virtual lunch meeting and buy our own lunch and sit in front of a camera while management lunch was probably paid for on the company credit card. Every supervisor has a corporate card. Use it! --Indefinite work from home is not an option. --Collections team bring in lot of the companies money and is the most forgotten. (No incentives) --Low pay --FTO offered to salary employees only. If you are hourly, you can forget it. --Promotions are not fairly given. Management or your superior should speak on it if you deserve it but good luck with that. --No more Christmas Party, Company outing in the parking lot. Understood it is a pandemic, however, find a way to compensate your employees other wise. Especially for the ones who are most forgotten.....Collections --Health insurance is not the worst but the deductible is high for individuals with no major health issues. Therefore, when you go to the doctor you will have a bill b/c you never met the deducible.
