Pros

The people you work with are good people. The products are amazing and something to be proud of. Work hard and you'll have job stability. Plenty of opportunities to move around geographically and in different fields.

Cons

You can have a good manager and that can make all of the difference but people are not a top priority to the overall company. People are not trusted, decisions are micro-managed, changes come slow due to multiple approvals needed. The company does not care about individual employees. At times it feels like there is an overall desire to hold folks back. Hard workers are overloaded with work and have disproportionate hours to low workers who often skate by to avoid conflict. Seems 'good ol' boy' and length of service trump (loyalty) experience and potential. HR outsourced and NOT human at times. They have a job to do (keep costs low) and they do it well.

Working with great people makes such a difference day to day – it's good to hear that's been a real part of your experience. We hear you on internal progression – career growth can feel different for everyone, and we know we've still got work to do to make development paths clearer. Feedback like yours really helps us move in the right direction.

Thanks for sharing, sounds like you’ve had some great people around you – that kind of support makes a huge difference. It’s also encouraging to hear the company direction is coming through as a positive. Location is a personal factor, and we appreciate you sharing that as part of your overall experience.
