Pros

Many great (non-management) employees Remote Opportunities Perks/Activities for in office employees Beautiful Offices Charitable Foundation and Volunteer Opportunities PTO and Paid Holidays Flexibility

Cons

Boys Club - Significant Gender Inequality Women have to work twice as hard to get half as far and do not make as much as their male counter-parts VERY few women in Senior Leadership HR Works for CEO/Company NOT the Employees Most company activities involve lots of alcohol (this could be a pro for some people) So much finger pointing! Many are quick to blame others without taking any ownership or accountability for the breakdown. No one wants to rock the boat for fear they will be a target, so don't expect people to have your back Once you are a target - it is only a matter of time before they find a reason to terminate your employment Not a lot of organic growth - growth is coming from mergers & acquisitions, which means company frequently is changing direction and restructuring. Teams get changed, moved around without any notice to employees. It seems as Management is more concerned with the "new" companies & employees they acquired than they are with loyal employees who have been with the company for many years. Poor communication between departments - not a lot of consistency.

Pros

Awesome management, excellent work life balance and high expectations. Absolutely LOVED my role here, my team and my boss. They expect a lot and will treat you right if you are a hard worker and honest employee.

Cons

I resigned after a change in CSuite leadership (CEO, President of our Department etc), and other layoffs I felt changes were coming and wanted to get ahead of those. I resigned however loved working for Red River and would work for them again if the opportunity presented itself. True professionals.
