Pros

Before the purchase by STG, it was a great place to work. Leadership cared about the people and while they didnt always execute well it was like a small family

Cons

STG is all about bottom line. President doesnt care about the people at all, although he portrays that he does. Its all bottom line, and the people who get them there dont matter. With the two recent acquisitions, there is less and less importance placed on people. More cuts to come, anyone who is from the old FADV world needs to be worried for their job.

Pros

Remote first company Once out of operations you really manage your own time.

Cons

Excessive Workloads Poor choice in Team Leads Don’t get sick and if you do pray it doesn’t last longer than your FMLA 12 weeks because they will fire you! Even after 8 years of employment. Even when it is documented that they are responsible for the health issues caused by burnout!
