Pros

The people, the experience, working from home options, and the benefits

Cons

I worked here for 7 years. I started at $32,000 like all my peers. Despite consistently meeting or exceeding expectations on my PPR, I was never promoted and was making a little over $36,000 when I left.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.

Pros

The company has a great severence package. Unfortunately thats a pro because they are laying off workers every 3 months until most of operations are offshore. Decent 401k match and vacation.

Cons

Layoffs, pay is low. Return to office mandate.
