Pros
Supports diversity for the most part. Has a good employee AI training program. Has a lot of amazing employees who truly try to live their values.
Cons
Culture has degraded significantly since Ken Lamneck retired. It's become super corporate and toxic. Fear culture. Purely bottom-line focused. No longer people-first. Leadership tends to not truly live the values - mostly expect Hunger from the employees while showing very little Heart. CEO even jokes they need to add a new one called "Hustle." That says a lot. I cringed every time she said that. Burnout was rampant. Many employees are underpaid. Merit increases in 2024 and 2025 were the lowest I had seen in years there. You can get paid better elsewhere. Benefits are lacking - especially medical. Medical benefits were repeatedly brought up on their annual employee survey yet the cost to the employee for medical benefits kept increasing most years with no meaningful improvement to the benefit? Job growth is limited. You will go YEARS without promotion mainly because of unclear career roadmaps, lack of budget for promotions and favoritism. If you want to get promoted, it's easier to apply externally. Some HR programs are two-edged swords - used to help people grow and also used to tear them down and terminate them. Current executives are modern age dinosaurs with an outdated belief that return to office mandates improve productivity. It was really a shift from trust to control. Everything there became about control - especially the past two years. Avoid this company until they get a people-first CEO and executive team who places importance on their Heart value more than an imaginary Hustle value.
