Pros

Benefits are good, but didn't have the time to use them.

Cons

Managers cannot manage difficult co-workers and non-team players resulting in a handful of dedicated employees to be overworked every day. Managers hide this by not putting schedule changes on the work schedule so upon review, upper management sees the work is balanced amongst all employees.

Pros

The work is meaningful and overall the company vision aligns with my goals

Cons

QA management has become inept. None of the leadership (aside from maybe one or two) truly understand the nuances of our site and jobs. They refuse to pay you more due to "budget" reasons but won't provide much information, they claim to be transparent but will make decisions behind your back and not communicate them, even if they impact you and/or your job. Leadership doesn't listen to feedback and gets defensive if you even try to give any. It honestly has become a game of politics only in QA and that's not really building any real quality culture.
