There are not cons with the company
- Former Employee, more than 8 years★★★★★
Pros
Best Company to work for, I never had a bad experience, I looked forward to going to work every day and I knew that my work family was behind me 100% for any situation that came up.
Cons
Towards the end, those of us who were able to stick around until the full acquisition took place, was like watching your best friend leave you forever. Every day, more people had left, and what remained was just a skeleton of a company that had been the best in the industry.
- Former Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★

Diverse and inclusive company. Progressive policies.

Because it was a start up things could be chaotic.
