Pros

There were none and it was the literal worst

Cons

The pay was sub par, the management was toxic, there is no sick leave, when traveling for work the expectations are intense (15hour days or longer), was often doing the job of two or three people with no incentive, the opportunities for growth are non existent, the list goes on and on

Pros

The pay was ok, I guess. They give me a 10% raise after only a few months of being there, in addition to a [v small] holiday bonus. They also gave the week between Christmas and New Year's off, although you were still expected to answer any/all emails received, so... not really.

Cons

EDI has little to no interest in diversity, with the DEI "committee" (now dismantled) being a figurehead that was tasked with doing silly events rather than any interest in making measurable change. (Illustrated by how the vast majority of the company is middle-aged white women.) They do not offer one single day of sick leave. If you need time off, it comes from your bank of PTO. (15 days to start, moving up to 20 after 5 years of service, if I remember correctly.) When traveling, the work expectations were intense, often clocking 16+ hour days, with little to no incentive for doing so. After suffering a life-altering injury and returning from my federally-protected (FMLA) leave, I was put on strict performance plan, though I had zero performance issues prior. (And, in fact, I'd been awarded a huge raise only a few months earlier.) HR (and management) were legitimately cruel, especially in relation to my FMLA leave. My time with EDI was legitimately the worst of my entire life-- even worse than when I was widowed. If you're considering employment with this company, I would highly suggest you don't.
