low pay, no COLA, low merit raises. good vacations, reasonable work/life balance
Pros
3 weeks vacation starting for all employees + Christmas week close 6 weeks maternity/paternity leave (very generous) reasonable 401K matching and employee benefits reasonable work hours (at least in my department) some flexibility in work/life balance
Cons
- Does not feel like Upper Management cares about their employees - Pay is below average, HR says they benchmark and pay as per "industry standard" but as far as I can tell they are below it - Bonuses are never at 100% and can be as low as 0% (no 100% is not unusual, but 0% is rather harsh) - No cost of living adjustment through the 2 past years (2022/2023) despite record inflation - Yearly raises are below industry standard - Got rid of work from home and ordered everyone back to the office under the guise of collaboration and being a "one big happy company family"
