Pros

Great team members to work with. Some individuals understand the concept of creating a great customer experience and want to provide excellent customer experience.

Cons

Company decided to cut PTO for employees in order to increase revenue for the company. Minimum to zero merit increases for the past 4 years. Company stresses to give more to receive more, that is NOT the case. Big bonuses for the CEO, VPs, Directors & dividends to the Shareholders in order to keep them satisfied.

Great company, everyone was very welcoming and accommodating. Management was pretty laid back but still expected results. This role was remote btw.

Cons

No bad things to say

Pros

Ability to work remotely, wanting too share knowledge or learned skills with AI.

Cons

Treat people more like independent contractors and don't have centralized places to find information that it needed. There SharePoint sites are not easy to navigate.
