Pros

The company is very lenient and flexible when it comes to your work schedule. If you would like to work from home during times of need, it most likely will be granted. The benefits are decent and they promote self growth.

Cons

The lower management are not imbedded into knowing their employees nor do they care to. They are imposters. Literally, wolves in sheep clothing. They talk about growth all the time but do not allow movement upwards. They bring in competitors employees and promote them to higher positions. It’s disappointing because majority people have been in the same position for over 10 years and have not had the chance to move upwards. The company is a very relaxed company to work for and the work is simple, but the management causes you to want to leave or move over to other departments hoping it’ll be different. They never hold people accountable for their actions and allow people who don’t care or understand how to do their job to stay or be promoted. However, people who have excelled are forced to stay in their same position for years. It is true what they say it’s about who you know not what you know. This company is the true definition of that. Training is a joke because there is none. They throw you into a position and don’t give direction. The companies structure really needs to be revamped.

Pros

Great place to work. Although there has been a lot of change over the past few years, I feel the company is back on track. Culture has been dramatically improved.

Cons

Not much at this time. Still lots of change ahead though as the company transforms into a tower focused company.

Pros

Depending on who is running your team (I’ve had 3 different team leads in the 3 years that I’ve been a full time employee,) some have provided great mentoring, and have taught me a lot.

Cons

Job security is extremely unstable, and employees often feel like they are one decision away from becoming part of another layoff statistic. In my experience, women were not always treated equitably compared to their male counterparts, depending heavily on the leadership structure within the department. The company also showed limited willingness to accommodate health conditions, often searching for loopholes to minimize support, assistance, or benefits during times when employees and their families needed them most. Leadership roles often felt transactional and tied directly to the company’s immediate operational goals. For example, when a department needed growth, leadership would bring in individuals with strong industry relationships, connections, and expertise to help expand profitability and establish the department. However, once those goals were achieved and the leader’s network or strategic value had been fully utilized, the company would frequently move on from them—either through reassignment or termination—in favor of the next person who fit the company’s evolving objectives. Overall, the culture created an environment where many employees felt expendable rather than valued long-term.
