Pros

Great benefits such as PTO, Sick Time, Maternity & Paternity Leave

Cons

The company is remote-first which benefits some but not all employees and definitely creates a lack of camaraderie within teams who are spread across the country.

Pros

Hybrid or remote schedule for some employees, fair salary, free makeup

Cons

The most disorganized accounting/finance system I have ever been a part of. Lots of skeletons hiding in those closets and management resigning left and right during audit season (lots of audit issues). Needless to say, if you dont mind being part of an unprofitable company where the average employee leaves before 1.5 years this could be a decent role. I could never take a day off without being forced by "management" to bring my laptop and do work on my actual vacation time. I never even took a real vacation while I worked here even though the managers kept changing every few months and they never knew what work I actually handled.
