Pros

There are some good benefits, and remote environment is ok if that’s what you prefer.

Cons

The marketing team is very disjointed and the CMO was not great to work for, at all. Lots of changes happen and leadership doesn’t actually care about employees, as the team is pretty big.

Pros

- Great team from department head down - Collaboration is encouraged - Self-starter culture with good room for side projects - "See something, say something" approach allows questioning methodology without a feeling of personal attacks or "dumb questions" and enables team members to support each other in a safe environment - Work from home

Cons

- Executive leadership does not know what they want - Consistent turnover in C-Suite leads to departments acting like small internal companies rather than part of a larger system - Limited permission access for team members means that any absence or time-off can lead to a backlog of deployments
