Pros

If you're great at vicious underhanded politics, you can really thrive. If you're a friend or relative of a senior manager, you'll probably be treated fairly. If you're a power-hungry sociopath and you're great at politics or are a friend of a senior manager, this is a great place to work. Lots of snacks.

Cons

If you are not great at vicious underhanded politics, or you are not a friend or relative of a senior manager, this place is depressing.

Pros

Great Benefits & Remote Work

Cons

No matter how hard you work, there’s no recognition or pay increase. I wouldn’t recommend using the open-door policy if you have concerns about a manager. I raised an ongoing issue and ended up being written up based on claims that I wasn’t completing my work, even though I was following instructions. When layoffs happened, I was unfortunately among the first to be let go. It felt like a real slap in the face after all the time and commitment I gave to the company.
