Pros

Some of the people you work with are decent humans, and they have some good benefits, like discounts on retailers.

Cons

If you ever do anything which management considers wrong, like getting sick or disagreeing with someone in HR, they will bully you and try to crush your spirit until either you end everything or you quit, they will gaslight and bully you until you leave. They will say that HR make the rules, and they can choose what policy applies and what they can adapt to their devices. After speaking with a lawyer you discover that they have placed protection inside the BPA which prevents you from getting help from outside of the company, thereby isolating you and removing your right to defend yourself, do not agree with the BPA and state that line needs to be removed. They will use every trick they can to make sure you feel worthless and they are right, then they will make up garbage until you are so worn down they can just terminate you without a fight. Be very careful working here, they are run by narcissists and people who enjoy the suffering of others.

Pros

Good benefits, hybrid work arrangement is flexible (you can choose your 3 days in office)

Cons

Tenure and friendship is valued more than actual skillsets. Many people in Ops have no formal college education or true technical skills, and have been complacent in the dept for 10+ years. This leads to inefficient and stale processes that are reluctant to change. The culture is extremely passive aggressive and long-tenured employees are not welcoming to new hires from outside of the organization. People will go out of their way to sabotage opportunities for those offering new perspectives with greater value add. This causes forced interactions with low value collaboration. Many in analytical roles do not even understand basic Microsoft Office skills, Excel functions, V/XLOOKUPS, etc. and data is often reviewed manually per line item… This company is run like a low budget mom and pop shop where inefficient and backwards practices are toxically in circulation.
