Pros

We work remotely. My team is pretty decent. Working on new technologies, advancing the company and myself. They are trying to get people in the jobs that best fit them. Stable/steady company. CEO is great. My job has good enough work/life balance, and remote work helps keep it tha way.

Cons

Pay doesn't seem as competitive as it should be for Chicagoland area. No bonuses. Pretty basic benefits for corporate job. Hard to stay knowing I could be paid more and the new people will get hired at same or higher salary to longer employees. Knowing you're paid less is deflating, even though the company is otherwise pretty good. Makes me feel like a fool for staying so long.

Pros

The teammates that I worked with were generally really great. Decent opportunity for learning

Cons

The benefits were not great, 3 year vesting to get a 401k match, insurance was sub par, time off was below average. In addition to this the management team is having a lot of turnover along with getting rid of people systematically (or what feels targeted). This is following some acquisitions that could have been great but because the teams are all operating in silos with what feels like no cohesive direction from the senior leadership. The products that are being sold are very old feeling/looking with no real changes on the horizon. Pair this with high level executive leadership changes that are pointing to a potential sale of the company which likely will come with more changes and loss of employment.
