Vantaggi

It's a solid company. The benefits are great. The profit-sharing plan is phenomenal. The company pays tuition reimbursement. There were a lot of incentives: company events/meals and merchandise. There was a gym on the premises.

Svantaggi

The office wasn't as diverse as it could be. Not really enough flexibility for a middle-level manager. Middle and upper management was very disappointing. My salary was disgusting. I took an extremely severe pay cut. I had an incompetent manager, which made my job unbearable. She had a "my way or the highway" attitude. Do what she says. Don't think. Don't ask any questions. That's not a good fit for my personality and creativeness. And you can't move to another position or location without the blessing and support of your current manager. So, I was screwed.

Vantaggi

Benefits are decent and reasonably priced. They offer a 401k match, BCBS insurance, FSA, HSA, dental, vision, life insurance, and accidental D&D coverage. They also do a 3‑to‑1 match for donations to non‑religious 501(c) organizations. There’s a big emphasis on volunteering, with plenty of opportunities to get involved. The building itself is beautiful, with a free on‑site gym, a coffee shop, real trees in the atrium, a waterfall, and a large cafeteria (though the food can vary). They’re also flexible about which days you come on‑site, depending on the team’s schedule. If I needed to switch a Monday for a Thursday, it was never an issue. My manager was also supportive of remote work on days when the weather made commuting difficult.

Svantaggi

Admins do not get an annual bonus. They're really strict on Overtime, really weird about worrying about mini costs. Like they'll spend 50k on a week-long training but freak out if people want to rent a car while being in town. Can't buy lunch for this 3 hour meeting to cut costs, but we'll drop 10k on this other thing. It's also so unfair that some people get to work remotely and others are forced to come in 3 times a week, for the exact same roles. Every meeting is basically online, so it's just silly and a power trip.
