Pros

The other people at the company that aren’t in control of how badly leadership and the PE firm owners screw them. They’re all wonderful people.

Cons

Enormous insurance broker that provides the MOST EXPENSIVE and TERRIBLE insurance coverage to its own employees. Owned by a PE firm that cares only about bottom line EBIDA numbers. Refuses to hire people that aren’t in profit centers to keep EBIDA looking artificially attractive. Doesn’t understand anything about most of the businesses they go out and acquire and don’t care to. Has no idea how to manage the acquisitions they arrange. Acquisition promises are complete lies. DO NOT SELL YOUR BUSINESS TO THEM. Gives away equity like candy so shares are constantly diluted and the shares they dangle in front of employees like carrots will never be worth anything. Uses these worthless shares as bonuses and ‘incentives’ even though no one will see a penny from them. Pays archaic salary rates. CEO’s favorite place is Atlantic City, which says plenty on its own about the sliminess of the place.

Pros

Good 401k match. No vesting period. Benefits overall decent. PTO. Early closures.

Cons

Training doesn't happen. Very sink or swim culture. Good young talent is wasted by management that only cares about tenure. Management is impossible to reach as is HR. Pay raises are a joke as is the performance review process. They claim to have a set structure, metrics and growth plans for employees but rate and promote on vibes only. Pay bands low for industry
