Pros

Benefits Direct management was great. Hybrid work schedule was nice.

Cons

At this point, the layoffs are expected—constant reorgs, no job security, and inconsistent pay raises that didn’t always reflect true performance.

Pros

Good vacation time and holidays although you will not be allowed to take them. You will need to defer them

Cons

The Customer Service dept is not respected at all. We are easily expendable pawns. You will be abused by the Customer and the company

Business Outlook

Pros

- Emphasis on tech modernization and stability. Opportunities to work with the latest and greatest technologies - Good work life balance and well planned roadmap and quarterly objectives

Cons

- Engineering pay is not competitive with the engineering model. Hard to hire top talent to begin with, and top performers upskill and then leave - Lack of RSUs/stock options/ESPP for individual contributors. Employees don't have any incentive to be invested in the company's long-term success - Frequent re-orgs with little follow-through - At times tone deaf executive team. Latest example is announcing layoffs along with VP promotions and an ensuing All Hands with a congratulatory tone
