That is why we have implemented a results-driven salary distribution approach, ensuring fair compensation for everyone.

      Great Company!

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Teams work closely together with little intervention from central or global teams. No issues with micromanagement. If you can own your processes and perform adequately you should like the company. Great 9% 401k match. Executive leaders are very approachable and differing opinions are welcome. No large headcount reduction initiatives that I know of.

      Cons

      Sometimes slow to give material raises when economy is in a bad spot. In general, people seem to be rewarded by waiting through it though. I have seen some people move up very fast so it is circumstantial.
