Pros

Well the benefits are fairly good. The health care coverage used to be awesome. The price has gone way up and the co-pays as well over the last few years. Paid leave is pretty good. I'm getting 3 floating holidays, 3 personal days, 5 sick days and 3-1/2 weeks of paid vacation plus the normal 6 holidays. I've been subjected to several different managers. Some of them were awesome - some of them were devils with horns. Luck of the draw I guess depending on what branch you work in.

Cons

Not exactly ideal work conditions. You are high pressured and the environment can get pretty bad with sour attitudes and finger pointing. I could deal with that if the pay were better. I like the benefits which is what keeps me there, for now. The pay scale is on the lower end and pay raises are dependent on who you know. I consider a .15 cents per hour raise an insult, more like a slap in the face.

Pros

Huge office space and freedom to work independently in break rooms instead of being stuck at a desk. They have many opportunities for growth but the high paying roles are salaried and are paid once a month instead of biweekly. Overall a great company with good benefits

Cons

Lower pay than normal for the work

Pros

None, I would say remote work but it’s very toxic.

Cons

Poor leadership (manager and director), poor communication, poor training, unrealistic m expectations, micromanagement, no SOPs, lack of structure, FLSA violations, no upfront disclosure of what role is, stingy management. People outside of HR are great. In HR? They’re happy to lay people off and talk about it so casually during meetings. Think “it’s our yearly layoffs” and joking about catching people “slipping”. No opportunities for growth despite saying there was during interviews. Interview and reality are worlds apart. No diversity. Severe control issues. No new people have been hired in over 3 years yet multiple people have left so people are burnout. One person handles all of one process alone and management thinks that’s ok. For reference the same process takes 10-11 associates in the same sized org. I can go on. Stay away!!!
