Pros

Some perks if you really like sports. Not all departments are bad. Nice corporate headquarters. They had a summer policy of letting people out at 3:00 on Friday's, but my boss was not a fan, so I never felt that I could take advantage of it.

Cons

My department was very contentious. The Directors all hated each other and energy spread throughout the department. My boss was not very ethical and seemed to be rewarded for that behavior as were most of the leaders that I worked with. I could not wait to leave the company. I left work every day with a stress headache.

Pros

- Unlimited PTO with 401k match is awesome

Cons

- Performance expectations were often unclear or inconsistently communicated, Feedback was reactive instead of timely and actionable. - Leadership quality varied dramatically by manager, with limited coaching or mentorship. - Constant shifting priorities without adjusting expectations or workload. - Psychological safety was lacking, Honest communication feel risky. - Leadership messaging around culture didn't match day-to-day reality. - Process was often valued more than impact or results. - Compensation well below market, w/little flexibility during negotiations. - I felt excluded from key conversations and opportunities that were important to my success.
