Pros

Unlimited PTO Coworkers are great Insurance is ok.

Cons

Management doesn't have themselves together, ever. The constant changes to processes because no one can sit down to take a month to actually get things together makes it even more difficult. The micro-managing is OVER THE TOP. Undefined roles for management is also an issue. Pay rate for the work is laughable.

Pros

Pay and benefits were pretty good. Only reason I stayed.

Cons

Chaotic leadership. People are constantly busy doing things that don't matter as there is no clear understanding of what the strategy is or what success looks like.
