Pros

Upstanding individual contributors and team leaders/middle managers across the technology organization $1 health insurance for singles On site fitness center and recreational activities Employee Stock Programs Opportunity for advancement and cross departmental internal transfers Outstanding internship programs and a place for college graduates to begin a career

Cons

Benefits package is below market if you are carrying additional dependents Upper management is out of touch with the workforce needs and feedback loops RTO policies are antiquated for a technology company Inexpensive (4$) lunch meals are subpar in quality High turnover volume has made job executions more difficult over time Knee jerk reactions from the top create a chaotic environment for individuals at the ground level resulting in moving target objectives, unrealistic deadlines, and an overall feeling of instability Fear based leadership and micromanagement are common themes Company is outwardly marketed as a Technology workplace but treated inside as Sales and Operational workforce as a whole Lack of flexibility across departments and subgroups to create policies and change that promote a healthy working environment. One size fits all blanketed policies

Pros

* Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

Cons

Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
