Pros

wfh, flex-hours, would hear ideas out (depending on your team), occasional catered lunch (once a week roughly)

Cons

health benefits are less than stellar. Pay is aweful. I got a better offer years prior. Only reason I took it was because I was greatly under pressure, in-part by them. I will not go into details.

Thank you for this balanced and thoughtful review. We're glad to hear that our benefits and investment in people are making a positive impact, those are commitments we take seriously. On the process feedback: Leadership is actively reviewing operational workflows, and the advice to listen more closely to employee feedback is something we're holding ourselves accountable to. If you're open to it, we'd encourage you to bring specific examples forward through your team or people and culture contacts. Change is most effective when it's grounded in the real experiences of the people doing the work, and that means you.
