Pros

Time off program is very generous. Working remotely is encouraged.

Cons

The technology issues are comically bad. The amount of red tape is staggering. Star employees are oftentimes abused, getting the work of 2 or 3 FTEs. It's incredibly easy for poor employees to just keep collecting paychecks with no consequences Job security: if your job can be offshored, your job WILL be offshored. Compensation is extremely out of whack, if they get you cheap initially, good luck trying to get fair market value.

Pros

Good, smart colleagues in other offices.

Cons

At times, decisions appeared to prioritize individual objectives over team needs, which affected collaboration and morale. Greater consideration of team perspectives and shared goals would help build trust and engagement. I observed instances where expectations communicated to the team were not consistently reflected in leadership actions. Greater consistency between stated values and day-to-day decisions would strengthen credibility and confidence within the team.
