Pros

You get a paycheck to pay your bills

Cons

I am extremely underpaid (my salary is not at all market competitive), terrible benefits, PTO is a joke, no career opportunities, a lot of BS work to keep you busy. I have honestly not learned a single new skill that I can show off to my next employer..., lack of diversity (don't let the images online trick you - everyone is White), bonus pay is a joke (I am pretty much taking a pay CUT this year), toxic work environment.

Pros

Great work-life balance as a remote employee. Management is approachable and genuinely willing to help when it comes to workload — you never feel like you're on your own.

Cons

Mentorship is largely self-driven. if you don't seek it out yourself, it won't come to you. Systems and internal processes can be slow and tedious, which adds friction to an already fast-paced workload. Compensation does not reflect the complexity or volume of work expected. High performers who are ready for the next step would benefit from clearer, more proactive promotion paths. When that structure is missing, talented people disengage quietly long before they ever leave.
