Pros

Disconnected management never knew if I was doing my job or not. Made for many early days. Benefits actually decent which is a surprise given they strip everything else away. Great business lesson in where NOT to work!

Cons

Rather than rattle off a very long list of cons, I'll keep it simple: Avoid this company even if you are desperate for a job. Besides, nobody knows how long they'll last because tomorrow your job could be in India or sourced out to a PT temp. Clea example of capitalism at it's worse.

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!
