Pros

flex pto and coworkers are great for the most part. Trying to change the company vision and morale with dare to lead and now offering standard annual raises which were unheard of for years.

Cons

Too much change too fast. Changing so fast it can't be changed right, and they want to change all the things right now, with plenty of things missed, and unreasonable timelines. The expectation is to complete it regardless. Processes are constantly changing and people can't remember how or what to do. Do more with less and the stop lists are a joke. Nothing gets stopped they just lay people off or not back fill and expect the same work of the people that are left.

Pros

Good pay, great benefits, great people to work with, boss is great, etc.

Cons

Company is undergoing transformation, so it's a bit chaotic. Have to work with old stuff and new stuff at the same time. Hopefully that will change as we transform further.
