Pros

Great PTO, flex hours, great cafeteria, nice building, free soda/coffee/tea

Cons

Many comments on Glassdoor I found to be true. Poor Management - leaders have technical knowledge but poor management skills. Mgmt seems to be hands off- no support and dumps mgmt duties onto staff to handle. Unrealistic work demands on staff, unorganized, unstructured. Mgmt is either ignorant or non-caring when it comes to the amount of work staff are expected to perform. Non-existent training - watched a few videos from HR, was given 1 week watching someone than left on my own. Daily struggle with work because of lack of training. Huge disconnect between programs/departments - makes it hard for Company to work together when each dept/program does things their own way.

Pros

Work is interesting, people are great except for senior leadership. Work can be monotonous but there is opportunity for some cross training which helps; middle management is great for the most part

Cons

Pay is below average for industry and there is a huge range in pay for people doing the exact same work; promotions are difficult to receive - we shouldn't have to interview for promotions. Employees should have the opportunity to be promoted just based off merit and experience; "hybrid" work model forced upon employees when jobs can be done remotely; lack of care for employees from senior leadership
