Pros

Salary Flexible Hours Remote Job

Cons

- 2 layoffs in the past - Employees aren't listened even after filling the surveys sent by the HRs to improve the work environment. Only leadership words matter. - High performing employees with awards and recognitions are put under PIP(Performance improvement plans) to systematically let them go without any question being risen to the company. - Work Life Balance isn't promoted and looked down upon by the managers who don't have any of personal life of their's. - You are lucky if you get a supportive manager who trusts the team.
