      Pros

      Good PTO that is all

      Cons

      Terrible company culture, promoting only the young and pushing out the old (which is 40+), unrealistic and unachievable goals set by robot like managers who have no empathy for crew, no cost of living raises, no flexibility, no hope for most and it shows in the quality of work, the customer service and the general lack of caring.

      Pros

      Awesome coworkers for young professionals. Paid licensing for a few months.

      Cons

      Micromanagement is out of control. Incompetent team leaders who are obsessed with power and metrics. Back to back calls, limited support, and nearly impossible effective communication between departments. Zero time to cultivate culture because you are taking calls every second of the day except for 30min/1hr lunch and two 15 minute breaks. You’re locked into your role for over a year (apprenticeship for around 60 days, then a year after promotion to associate) and your team leaders will not approve internal applications unless you are “eligible”.
