      Pros

      Unlimited PTO, phone and internet reimbursement

      Cons

      Cannot stick to a plan. Every few months the company changes direction and it is not communicated effectively from leadership. High disengagement from colleagues due to favoritism. Values have been talked about being changed for 3+ years but are still the same and leadership does not follow them.

      Pros

      Pay and benefits were pretty good. Only reason I stayed.

      Cons

      Chaotic leadership. People are constantly busy doing things that don't matter as there is no clear understanding of what the strategy is or what success looks like.
