Pros

- Competitive salary: The compensation is at market average but no annual merit increases are offered. -Hybrid work flexibility: Generous home office policies and flexible working hours.

Cons

- Toxic Communication: A heavy "CC-culture" prevails where managers are copied on almost every email to document conflicts rather than solving them. This creates an atmosphere of surveillance and "us vs. them." - Lack of Leadership: Management is avoidant. Conflicts within the team are ignored even when explicitly addressed. Broken promises regarding career development or changes are common. - Gossip Culture: There is constant whispering and badmouthing behind people's backs. - Career Opportunities: No clear career paths or structured development plans. - Open-plan Office: The environment is loud and restless, making deep work difficult given the tense social atmosphere.

Pros

Broker and Processing was always very supportive. If you needed anything it was as easy as picking up the phone and making a call.

Cons

If there were any I would say it was location for me. The office was in Washington and I am in California
