Pros

Decent pay Benefits covered by company Systems are new and user friendly where a lot of the industry is still using DOS based programs

Cons

Hired remote & now expected in office 2x a week despite Nationalization team approach. --Teams scattered across country but in office is pushed heavily & strict Employee satisfaction is no longer a priority Heavy AI focus Upper departments do not communicate and leave for lower levels to "fix or figure it out". Slow to promote the deserving No proper progression plans No team bonding, holiday parties or anything social now with Nationalization. Unrealistic expectations Little training, and expectation to figure it out yourself despite not having tools to obtain the information needed Company used to have a better work/life balance and now less staff, more expectations and limitations on time off and work flows.

Pros

Work-life balance is generally good, and most colleagues are pleasant to work with. The workload is manageable most of the time, and the company offers a stable work environment.

Cons

Career growth opportunities can be limited, and promotion paths are not always clear. Turnover has been noticeable in recent years, resulting in the loss of experienced employees and added pressure on remaining teams. Compensation is generally average relative to the market, particularly when bonus is considered. The company tends to take a conservative approach and is not always a leader in technology, innovation, or process improvement, which can make change feel slow at times.
