Pros

Lots of opportunities if you seek them out. Great focus on diversity and community.

Cons

User software is terribly behind...browser versions aren't even supported by most mainstream websites. This lack of ability to stay mainstream with technology gives us a backward image in front of clients. And the mindset seemingly of the company is that technology isn't important and that we're not in that business - but if you don't have up-to-date technology and have technology wrapped around your offerings in multiple ways, you've missed the boat. They need to clearly understand this and embrace it.

Pros

-Trustworthy immediate colleagues -Good work/life balance and flexibility

Cons

-Little career pathing within company. Organization is extremely siloed, and cheap as they simply aren't interested in paying for small things to advance one's career like local industry conferences and events such as team holiday dinners that would have minimal impact on the company's bottom line. -Pay not aligned with skills or talent marketplace -One would think a benefits/career consultant would have decent pay and benefits. This is not the case
