Pros
Fair amount of PTO that scales with seniority. Can work as a remote employee if you live nowhere near an office.
Cons
Just about everything. I used to love working at this company but the past couple years just feels like a downward trend. The first biggest gripe I had was when they replaced their awesome health insurance plan with some worthless high deductible HSA plan. It is literally cheaper for me to pay for my own healthcare out of pocket then to use Hyland's plan, pay for the premium and end up paying out of my own pocket on top of that anyway. HR is very rigid and seems rather clueless as to what is going on. Morale is very low in R&D, pay is low and people seem to jump ship as soon as another opportunity comes along. It really doesn't help that the career track doesn't make any sense; no one really seems to know what you need to do to be promoted to the next job title, and unfortunately the only way to get a raise anymore is to get promoted so expect to be stuck in the same position for years making the same amount of money despite inflation, increasing living costs and not having decent health insurance. As a result you'll feel less and less motivated and will be having to force yourself to go to work every morning hoping that just maybe today you will get hit by a bus. HR also seems oblivious to employees with disabilities or other health problems. Being the bureaucrats that they are they'd rather you be chained to your desk and step in line than be productive for the sake of adhering to the employee handbook. All that being said any kind of productivity draining meeting they seem to be able to come up with all seem like propaganda pep rallies that are blind to the poor morale of the company. It reminds me of the Soviet newspaper "Pravda"; which means "Truth" in Russian, but everyone knew it was anything but. I don't dare make my complaints known because I genuinely fear retribution for dissent, and even in the best case scenarios management wouldn't even hear me out and then proceed to make some depressing company-wide decision that doesn't make any sense.
