Pros

Great work from home/life balance. Good teams to work with and easy access to resources when needed.

Cons

Company in general is having trouble staying relevant from over emphasis on expansion the past 2 years. Drastic company shifting changes that includes restructuring and laying off people. Upper management scrambling to shift priorities to retention which should have been a priority all along. Relying on a temporary cultural change to expand(Covid at home schooling) has come back and bite them. Technical support department has extremely limited paths for promotion.

Pros

The product is fundamentally good. The cause is fundamentally good. The people you work with directly are great. Because the consumers are primarily government entities it is a very stable business model.

Cons

Management has no respect or concern for people who work here. Employees are disposable and there has been at least one layoff each year for the past three years. This usually is presented as “we didn’t have the right team” or “plans didn’t work out” and the usual cut and paste explanations. In spite of being told the company is very profitable, raises did not happen for a while and the most recent one is barely a cost of living adjustment. Promotions have also not happened and many people are doing a different more senior role with the title they started with during the pandemic era hiring boom. Senior leadership is detached, unaware of projects in flight, and unfamiliar with the products to the point they will suggest new initiatives that are for things we already have. Most of them come from very large companies and try to act as if we have the same headcount, resources, and consumer base as a multinational B2C and are seemingly confused and unhappy when things don’t work out the way they expected.
