Reviews about "work life balance"

Pros
There were plenty of chances to advance if you liked to suck up and play politics.
Cons
Everything else- poor work-life balance, restrictive work environment, mediocre compensation, incompetent leadership.

Pros
Pay is decent. Work/life balance is pretty good. Remote work opportunities. Annual wellness labs are free to employees/spouses
Cons
Your experience depends on what department you're in. H&L is great. PL management is a mess and known to target people they don't like. Management is clique-y. Insurance premiums are cheap, but deductible is high.

Pros
Very friendly workplace with an understanding in the need to be flexible for a happy work/life balance. The company does try to stay on top of constantly evolving with technology, and keep employees motivated. There is also a really great wellness program, which promotes a health lifestyle, to balance the monotony of working at a desk.
Cons
No real complaints to list. It's been one of my best workplace experiences thus far.

Pros
None but if I had to choose one… Remote work sometimes offered
Cons
Over worked, underpaid, horrible work/life balance (and that’s pretty sad when your job is fully remote from home), extremely micromanaged (to the point that it affects the employee’s production numbers and accuracy bc we are interrupted constantly with random questions from managers to look back and describe what happened a week ago and why you had a file open for over 5 minutes… etc)

Pros
Work/life balance, employees are appreciated
Cons
Constant change, but that's not really a con

Pros
The flexible work environment and support of colleagues is exceptional. Training and development is a growing focus and I’ve never felt like I’ve been “out on an island” by myself. Colleagues are ready to to assist. Great work / life balance.
Cons
If anything, the fact most colleagues are remote can sometimes be viewed as a negative. While communication as a whole through the organization is good, getting together in person a bit more would improve communication.

Pros
Amazing Work/Life Balance with a positive workplace atmosphere. This company does not just advertise that they care about the employees they actually live this everyday. They believe that family is the most important thing and allow you to work a flex schedule or remotely if need be. They also offer free wellness courses from yoga and meditation to financial wellbeing. This organization is truly a pleasure to work at and the people are great to work with!
Cons
No cons at all and absolute amazing place to work!
