Pros

Very flexible company and many opportunities to advance within the company. Most departments are fun to work in and have great people to work with. Some of my greatest friends have come from working here and making work enjoyable for me.

Cons

Salary has always been on low side but the flexibility and work activities make up for it. They have multiple parties, Christmas, Summer, Halloween, Founders weeks, Annual Company Golf Tournament, Golf League and other fun work activities that you look forward to. Benefits are good but recently they just raised the premiums and it feels like you just lost your pay raise you got last year. Senior Management always finds a way to blame increases for benefits premiums or decreases on bonuses on things like Covid... even though our revenue has stayed the same.

Pros

- Good benefits - Secure positions (they don't fire people to trim the budget) - Excellent facilities - Flexible work-from-home policy in most departments (as long as you aren't abusing it) - Fun activities for the whole family (I'm a fan of the movie nights on the lawn)

Cons

- Management is moving backward, not forward. - Promotions are given based on who you are friends with. - There is a severe lack of diversity especially in management. - Once they have made up their minds, senior management won't listen to concerns or suggestions. But they don't give you a chance to express your concerns or suggestions before they make up their minds. - There is a lack of communication across departments. People are duplicating work because no one is talking to their counterparts in the rest of the company. - The product release is driven by development. This might be a pro if you are a developer. But for marketing, sales, implementation, QA, documentation, training, and support, it is a pain in the neck. The company doesn't look good if you are learning about a product feature for the first time when a customer asks you a question about it.
