Needs a lot of improvement
Mar 29, 2023 - Anonymous Employee in San Francisco, CARecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Good retirement plan, great team. Healthcare is not bad but not the best in market.

Cons
Lack of structure in process and onboarding. Outdated systems made something as simple as submitting a purchase order take a thousand years.
