Pros

Awesome team and leadership. Very open to new ideas and ways to do things better! Fast-paced environment as the company experiences a ton of growth. Super BUSY, but I personally thrive in an environment where there's always something to do. Leadership is also very good about making sure their team has good work life balance. Very flexible for life outside of work and they trust you to get your things done. A lot of autonomy here.

Cons

Always room for improvement at a fast-growing company! Some things are still pretty manual (as least in TA), but again, they are very receptive to feedback and making things more efficient as we grow. PTO could be better (only 15 days starting, but you do get 6 days of sick and safe time in MN which is a plus).

Pros

Very easy to get a position here, it is a revolving door of personnel

Cons

Everyone always fights everything. No team cohesion. Every hourly worker has the accountability of a four year old. Management demands your time at all hours of the day and doesn't really care that they do.

Decent but attractiveness is waning

Pros

People seem to genuinely care ESPP is decent but you have to make >$100K to really have it make an impact

Cons

Lost touch with DEI, employee satisfaction, etc. Mandated time in office (days and hours of the day) Base, bonus, PTO, and most other benefits are all much lower than market (individual contributors can’t earn higher than 5% bonus, entry managers 10%). PTO is 15 days, and you get 5 more every 5 years until you cap at 25. Career opportunities are bountiful (not necessarily progressive however) for engineers. All other functions are very, very difficult to move up or out at all times.
