Lots of Perks, but Lots of **** As Well
Pros
The perks are genuinely excellent and your company car is going to be better attended to than just about anything you could afford with the salary. A lot of your co-workers end up being very interesting and kind people. There is a significant amount of flexibility in your hours but it's a two-way street- work flexible hours and then management starts assuming you're available any day if the week at any time.
Cons
Management has little respect for your days off management comes up with a lot of "fun" meetings like a talent show, lunch hour without work talk, and quietly canceling then at the last second. They are also prone to telling you "find a time that's open in my calendar and let's do a call" , not responding, and then asking you to get on calls with less than 10 minutes notice. Although the company was generous and somewhat logical when we switched to working from home (with completely different work, basically an interim position at another department) , returning to the field aspect after that period has been almost offensively stressful. They act like being understaffed is your problem to solve not management's. It's a bunch of peppy, high energy language but at the end of the day they just want you to feel guilty for situations completely out of your control. All in all this is a legitimate company with a lot of upsides, but the MR position isn't really viable more than a year or two. It is DESIGNED to wear people down and i find it almost comical how badly they have treated the effects Covid has had on how the appointments work out. If you're interviewing I actually do recommend trying it out, just go into it knowing that realistically this is meant to be a position you hold a couple of years, make what bonuses you can (it's not bad) , and eventually get out and you realize how little you ever rested.
