Pros

Great people, great books, great authors!

Cons

Salary isn't the most competitive in the industry, and when the pay floor was raised for new hires, those in roles a few rungs up did not have their salaries adjusted accordingly. Promotions seemed a bit illogical at times. Unless you were an extroverted bestie with the department heads you were likely to be looked over. Feedback is often inconsistent and sporadic.

Pros

Fully remote with all necessary tech provided, weekday schedule, great benefits, good leadership, small close-knit teams, generous PTO in addition to paid holidays

Cons

Base salary could be better but is offset with benefits package. Employee retention is high (a huge plus IMO) butcould limit upward mobility if you're looking for it.
