Vantaggi
The standard PTO time is 3 weeks, but you can negotiate for more. Because there is so much work, you are highly unlikely to be laid off. During the summer and winter, there is a casual dress code. Between Memorial Day and Labor Day, you get to leave at 3pm on Fridays, if your work is done. There is a lot of food and drink, including alcohol, made available for free and lunches are catered often. There are a lot of knowledgable people here. If you are selected to be mentored, you will learn a lot.
Svantaggi
The company lacks any real diversity program. If you are a white man who plays golf and drinks, you will do very well here. You will be trained, mentored, and promoted quickly. The fewer of those characteristics that apply to you, the less likely you are to move up within the company. They did recently start a corporate and local Diversity and Inclusion Council, but it is for appearances only. No real changes are happening. There are still major issues with racism, sexism, and more that are not being addressed or even talked about in an honest way. The office culture is based on negative feedback. Leadership will always tell you what you are going wrong, and usually in front of others, but does not often provide positive feedback of any kind. The company is not flexible on working from home. It is not allowed. You can have flexible work hours in some cases if your manager approves them. There is a complete lack of work / life balance. You are expected to work around 50 hours per week most of the time and 60 or more per week during peak times. They will call you when you are off and when you are on vacation. The further up you move in the company, the more you are expected to work. Sales and marketing people usually work 7 days per week.
