Pros

When I first began, it was a start up. We would have meetings concerning how to make the company profitable. The leadership listened to everyone's idea. On Wednesday, lunch was catered. It allowed us to get to know each other better and work through issues. Most mornings breakfast was provided. I found myself spend many hours working late and from home, but we were all given a certain amount of stock. That made it feel like it was our company.

Cons

The dress code was casual. Often employees would come to work in sandals and shorts. I think for a few it made the atmosphere too casual.

Pros

Great Benefits & Remote Work

Cons

No matter how hard you work, there’s no recognition or pay increase. I wouldn’t recommend using the open-door policy if you have concerns about a manager. I raised an ongoing issue and ended up being written up based on claims that I wasn’t completing my work, even though I was following instructions. When layoffs happened, I was unfortunately among the first to be let go. It felt like a real slap in the face after all the time and commitment I gave to the company.
