Business outlook
Pros
Strong capital allows the company to pursue many possible business ventures, and they're very stable financially.
Cons
Too many pokers in the fire, and not willing to staff up to support the speed they want to move forward at. This is a "total compensation" company, so pay is lower than competitors.

I feel the same way, too often we start down one path and then there is a change. Some of this is necessity, some is a lack of discipline. We need to commit to less and get it done. We wish you all the best.
Primarily remote work. Decent PTO after the 4th year.
Cons
Limited staffing and limiting overtime opportunities until the bitter end of potentially missing deadlines, which you are guilted into working. 2% "raise" every January and ZERO merit raises. Gutted profit sharing and profitability bonuses over time. Most recent bonus, which is tied to net profit after dividends, was given a result when the scale was never published. All previous bonuses had a floor-to-ceiling profit scale that showed the targets months in advance of the end of the bonus period.
