Pros

Quite literally no pros to working here except receiving a paycheck.

Cons

While the company talks a lot about culture and innovation, the reality was very different. The pay was significantly below industry standards, especially considering the workload and responsibilities. It felt like employees were expected to go above and beyond without fair compensation or recognition. Management was a major pain point. Many leaders seemed more focused on parroting corporate talking points than actually supporting their teams. When issues were raised, especially around workload, systems, or client frustrations, they were often dismissed or ignored. On top of that, the systems were unreliable and frequently malfunctioned, which made it hard to do our jobs efficiently and deliver for clients. It created a lot of unnecessary stress and left employees to deal with the fallout. Overall, it was a frustrating environment with a lot of potential that just isn’t realized due to poor leadership and lack of real investment in employees.

Work remote. Fantastic leaders, Definitely a place I have enjoyed working.

Pay is slightly less than competitors but work life balance and culture make up for it.

Pros

Great benefits; 90% of the ppl that worked there were the best and really did great work.

Cons

Made employees choose between having MLK Day off or Juneteenth- both which are federally recognized holidays. Excuse was that our customers are open on those days so we need to be open. So as a company, we had to pick which would be a paid holiday and everyone chose Juneteenth because it was in the summer. I think we got a floating holiday to use for any other holiday we wanted off that wasn’t recognized by the company. As you can imagine, this racism was prevalent in management/leadership. My team was the most diverse team and we all got restructured/laid off. There’s a lot of ego and control issues in this company, especially in Talent Acquisition.
