Pros

Nice colleagues. Pockets of helpful colleagues.

Cons

Unfortunately, culture of backstabbing exists and it starts at the upper levels of management. Careers do not exist. Wages are stagnant. IT infrastructure is old.

Low Diversity, Big Egos

Pros

The perks are great and the office is collaboratively set up helping with a positive work environment

Cons

I was disappointed to find the lack of diversity at the leadership level and amongst peers. I was met with large egos and nonsensical policy. There were even times when leaders would send out emails not realizing I was cc’d negatively discussing the response to give me near my last day when I inquiring about vacation. I wasn’t even acknowledged on my last day by some leaders regarding my departure. Completely disingenuous besides the saving grace of the individual who originally recruited me to the organization.
