Great people, great culture and pretty good work life balance. Salary is competitive and benefits are good (not great). They also have a fully remote business model that helps with work life balance. If your in a couple areas you can go into the office if you want to however.
Cons
Some fragmentation in the business makes driving positive outcomes more difficult then it should be. A little bit of a feeling that you have to justify your existence, nothing too severe, but it does add to some anxiety about job security.

Thank you for this. Glad the culture, people, and remote flexibility are resonating.
The point about fragmentation and job security anxiety is heard. That feeling should not be part of the day to day experience and we are paying attention to it. Your suggestion on bringing SMEs into QBRs is a good one. Decisions are better when the people closest to the work have a voice. We appreciate you taking the time to be that specific and will share this internally.
Leadership actually cares! They listen and dig deep to their employees. It is very refreshing!
Cons
A lot of acquisitions lately, and that has caused confusions with legacy customers

We’re thrilled to hear that our leadership’s commitment to listening and engaging with employees is making a positive impact. Creating an environment where every voice matters is a core part of our culture, and it’s great to know that resonates with you. We appreciate your note on acquisitions and the challenges they can bring for legacy customers. Your insight is valuable as we continue working to ensure smooth transitions and clear communication during these changes. We will continue to keep listening. Our employees' perspectives helps us grow stronger together.
Direct leadership frequently used 1:1 meetings to discuss personal matters rather than tracking project timelines, yet would later blame subordinates when timelines slipped. It was an incredibly uncomfortable environment where it felt impossible to succeed. Good ideas would be implemented and well-received by others, but direct management would find something negative to focus on, like claiming it took too long
Communication from direct management was passive-aggressive and often crossed professional boundaries. The language used in team settings was frequently inappropriate, including the use of highly offensive, derogatory language disguised as jokes. I was uncomfortable most of the time I worked there.
