Wonderful workplace!

Pros

Great culture. The company truly values its employees. I worked with a great group of people, and the company prioritizes hiring culture fits to ensure that is always the case.

Cons

Depending on your position, you could possibly make more elsewhere; however, work isn't all about the money, and the work environment makes it worth working there.

Pros

Great people and often times a lot of fun events to attend.

Cons

The work is very repetitive, whatever role or project you get assigned to will be very difficult to move out of. There is limited support for professional advancement as management would prefer to just hire those that are already qualified then to help their employees grow. Raises are handed out very sparingly and the 401(k) match is low at max of 1 percent of your salary. There is often times a lot of talk about management putting people first, and that money is limited, but the future will hold better wages. All while that is being said a great deal of money is spent on things to make the company look successful (flashy building, etc) instead of improving employee wages and benefits.

Good Overall, Horrible Pay

Pros

You'll be around people that are smart, care and are great at their jobs. Good perks like unlimited PTO, sodas in the fridge and a keg. A lot of the perks (catered lunches, culture club events, etc) are in the Lincoln office only. Time off is given to volunteer.

Cons

The pay is criminally low (a number of people work multiple jobs), health benefits have a lot of room for improvement. Frequently need to work remotely when things come up on the weekends or when you've taken time off.
