Pros

Their new office is great.

Cons

Never quite understood why these guys got named as one of KC's best companies to work for. No one there matured past the age of 14 and it's all a popularity contest. They're rude, arrogant, and above all, out for themselves and no one else. No sense of camaraderie nor willingness to work as a team.

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
