Pros

Management is approachable and human. The staff is filled with very talented individuals, and the company culture allows for collaboration with all levels of the company; this means you can really learn a lot by just doing your job. Solid benefits for professional development— including tuition reimbursement. Pay and benefits package, as a whole, are competitive for the market, and are regularly re-assessed with staff input.

Cons

There’s been a lot of change over the last few years, and there are some who, understandably, find change uncomfortable. If you can be comfortable with a lot change, this company would be a wonderful opportunity for you at this time; if a steady flow of change isn’t something you’re interested in, it’s probably not the place for you right now. Other than change, I would argue the other ‘con’ would probably be in relation to PTO; while still decent, staff with shorter tenure are still only given about three weeks per year until the 2-year mark. For other accounting roles, that amount would be closer to four or five weeks. This wasn’t a deal-breaker for me, and I’m glad it wasn’t, but more PTO would be wonderful for work-life balance.

Pros

I love working here, it’s a great fit for the right strengths. If you’re an adaptable, tenacious, problem solver, you’ll thrive. There are repetitive and unique tasks that arise, satisfying both needs for structure and challenge. I’ve watched our CEO grow with his delivery during town halls and office interactions.

Cons

Internal communications could be more streamlined and centralized; the majority of communications target the field and associates could benefit on less formal internal communications of what’s occurring within business units.

Pros

Modern office space and generally pleasant physical work environment.

Cons

Leadership appears to equate visibility with productivity. Employees are closely monitored, and minor deviations from expected routines can receive disproportionate attention. The culture often feels less focused on results and more focused on ensuring people are visibly performing work at all times. Note: the lowest pay in the industry. There is a noticeable gap between stated values and day-to-day management practices. Professional adults are treated as though they require constant oversight, which creates an atmosphere of distrust. Rather than empowering employees to succeed, management frequently defaults to control, criticism, and second-guessing. Training and development expectations are often unrealistic. Employees are expected to rapidly absorb complex material while simultaneously maintaining full workloads and navigating shifting expectations. Success is expected, but meaningful support is inconsistent. The organization would benefit from spending less time monitoring employees and more time addressing strategic priorities, process improvements, and retention concerns. Talented people do not leave because the work is difficult; they leave because they are exhausted by unnecessary management friction.
