Pros

Generous PTO and generally team orientated and inclusive atmosphere.

Cons

Leadership makes decisions that are not in the best interest of their employees. Pay below average compared to competitive companies in the area. Mandatory hybrid 3 days in, absolutely no exceptions and lack of flexibility despite claiming they provide it.

Pros

This is going to read cliche, but I can genuinely say that the people I worked with made this work experience enjoyable and tolerable.

Cons

Leadership eliminated it’s flexible work arrangements and has mandated a return to office policy. The CEO has been clear that he “doesn’t believe in work life balance” and is tasking leaders to micromanage employees by tracking badge-ins. While I personally wasn’t impacted, it put me in a position to lead my team with a “do as I say, not as I do” approach which I was not aligned with. As a remote employee, I didn’t feel like I’d have the ability to grow my career unless I wanted to move to Riverwoods. In a new hire call, the CEO answered a career advancement question and stated that we’d most likely have better career opportunities if we were in the office.

Pros

Mostly great people to work with. Nice campus before Covid lockdown. Decent Health Ins, but getting more expensive and restrictive each year, Great Paid Time Off days right from the date of hire.

Cons

Became almost all about cost cutting the last few years. Hiring more contract employees than real employees. Most people overworked. Huge numbers of long term employees have left in the past few years. Managers and Directors have their favorites and everyone else is left to fend for themselves.
