Pros

- Leadership goes through the motions of making people feel heard - The benefits aren't that bad (decent insurance, free product, and unlimited PTO if you can actually us it) - There are people here that are pleasant to work with and truely work hard to make a difference.

Cons

- Leadership will ask you to leave a positive glassdoor review and dismiss any criticism - Favorites are played heavily. Look at social media postings or follow which teams are growing and which figures in leadership are being promoted, you'll notice its the same five people over and over again. Either learn to play in the boy's club by being one of the boys or being a cute, younger woman that makes for a good photo op. The venn diagram of problematic or ineffective leaders and those being favored is a circle.

Pros

Free energy drinks and merch.

Cons

This is one of the worst companies I’ve ever worked for. The “best place to work” recognition does not reflect the reality of what many employees experience. During my time in this company the culture is driven by favoritism and a lack of accountability. Leadership roles are often filled by individuals who lack the necessary qualifications, while others are consistently overlooked without clear or honest explanations. Performance and merit are not the deciding factors for advancement. There is a consistent pattern of poor management, little to no training, and zero accountability for bad leadership decisions. Instead of building a professional and supportive environment, the culture rewards fitting a certain image over actual capability. I also observed ongoing inequities in advancement opportunities. Many BIPOC and LGBTQ+ employees were given vague or inconsistent reasons for not progressing within the company, while white employees / white hiring candidates advanced more easily. Over time, these patterns became difficult to ignore. Overall, the environment felt toxic, frustrating, and discouraging. I would strongly recommend that anyone considering working here carefully evaluate whether this is the right fit no matter what role you are applying.
