Pros

Decent benefits and some plans have a HRA that the company contributes to and it rolls over from year to year if you keep the same plan

Cons

They replace seasoned and experienced employees with college connect applicants for less than 50% of what the job should pay.

Pros

work life balance, excellent time off so long as manager doesn’t micromanage/track and limit FTO, nice people, leadership has turned the business around.

Cons

No pay raises even with great performance review (5years with zero raise) No career growth/progression - been on a high-performing team for 5 years and not one person on the team has been progressed or promoted during that time. Little opportunity for career advancement and growth New jobs within the company are going to external hires, not much grwoth for current employees
