Pros

absolutely besides the corner bakery downstairs.

Cons

After a month I quit on the spot and walked out. Absolutely no guidance to this company. It's salaried but you're so overworked people come in on Saturdays and it's just expected. There literally is such no direction no one would even give me an exact duration on how long my lunch break was. I work 10 hours a day now but I went into it knowing that so the hours didn't bug me but the management was absolutely awful in every way imaginable. The controller left shortly after me and the vice president was murdered so there's that too. Expect a company in chaos if you work here because it was already before that.

Pros

Employee friendly, personable management, tons of opportunities for growth, financially stable private company, extremely knowledgeable management and employees, understanding of life happening.

Cons

Prefer in office rather than hybrid or remote, benefits tiered more to young single employees than for experienced or longer career employees.

Pros

They pay pretty well, and some of their benefits offerings are quite nice. They're also very well located if you take public transit. The offices are nice and clean, and the kitchen is kept stocked with coffee, teas, and snacks/fresh fruit. They also offer yearly parties.

Cons

There's a culture of paranoia and personal distance built into this place, which churns through new employees on a constant basis. They ended remote work of any kind (except for Certain People) in January of 2025 and the entire office is still furious they refuse to address any complaints and would prefer to "move past it." The office is nice and clean, but it's highly exposed (your backs are to the walkways between sets of desks) and feels surveilled at all times. Nobody wants to put themselves on the chopping block by expressing an opinion, and it seemed like nobody wanted to get to know you in case you disappeared. In addition, the departments rarely talk with one another. You may end up doing duplicative work if you're in a role that requires teaming up with people from different units.
