None that I can think of
- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Very supportive coworkers, flexible schedule.
Cons
I experienced racial discrimination when I worked here in 2010, and the company did not take it serious. I spoke with an HR representative who agreed that there seemed to be racial discrimination going on. The solution was to put the manager in classes that taught him to be a better manager. One day I was sitting at my desk and decided to just up and quit. HR called me to ask why, but I felt like they weren’t taking it serious so I never returned their phone call. Sadly, I recently looked up this manager, and I see that he is now a director at the company. My coworkers (of various races) were very supportive and backed many of my claims to HR. Again, of course things were different then and I wasn’t taken serious. Luckily, I was able to file for and receive unemployment when I quit. In hindsight, I wish I fought harder to expose this manager because who knows what else he’s gotten away with.

- Current Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Pros
The company allows remote working.
Cons
Salary a bit lower than industry
- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
Decent salary and benefits, although the benefit costs are not the cheapest.
Cons
Poor management culture that will attempt to motivate employees by holding them accountable to shifting standards. You will work hard here, and your reward will be more pressure. Many talented folks came and went in the short time I was there, and it's clear their treatment of employees causes good talent to leave. Everyone in the management group seems to look after their own ambitions rather than those of their employees. Don't waste your time trying to pour yourself into a career at this place, it's not worth all the headaches and heartaches.
