Pros

-Lots of time off thanks to the Jewish holidays. - Currently, work from home on Fridays only for most office staff. - The folks we work with are pretty awesome.

Cons

How many can I list here? - I’m currently traveling because they do not believe in federal holidays or time and a half if you have to work one. - Not enough PTO. There are some Jewish holidays where everything is closed and you have to use your PTO to cover for those days without any option to work if you wanted to. - Strict and I mean strict attendance guidelines. If you’re not on the clock for 9 hours then you get in trouble. - while there is plenty of opportunity to move up in the company, it is unclear how you do and you don’t know if one position is a promotion over another. - Slow moving, everything operates at a snails pace.

Pros

It was an incredible, one of a kind place to work at prior to the hiring of the current CEO Menashe Horowitz.

Cons

Summary of Company Grievances ​The current leadership has shifted the company toward an authoritarian management style, characterized by a steady decline in employee benefits and compensation. Salary increases are negligible and fail to keep pace with inflation, leaving wages well below market standards. ​Key issues within the organization include: ​Leadership and Culture: CEO Menashe Horowitz is perceived as unreceptive to feedback, surrounding himself with inexperienced "yes-men." This has created an environment lacking genuine leadership. ​Work-Life Balance: Flexibility has been severely curtailed, including the elimination of remote-work Fridays. Furthermore, the company remains open on all U.S. federal holidays but closes for Jewish holidays, forcing employees to use their own paid time off (PTO) during those closures to avoid losing pay. ​Recruitment Challenges: Due to a wealth of negative reviews on platforms like Glassdoor, the company is struggling to attract qualified talent. ​Business Ethics: Management's operational practices are reportedly dishonest, utilizing aggressive "strong-arm" tactics with external vendors despite publicly claiming a commitment to transparency. ​Conclusion: While there was once a strong fondness for the company, its recent downward trajectory, stagnant wages, and poor treatment of staff indicate that it is no longer a viable place to work, making it time for employees to move on.
