Business Outlook

Pros

Generous PTO and company holidays; encouraged to use PTO. Very good Maternity/Paternity Leave policies

Cons

Disconnected leadership. No accountability for poor-performing employees. High achievers will receive the same reviews and bonuses as the poor-performers, so no reason to go above and beyond. Some team leaders do very little and leave their workers to figure things out on their own and upper management just looks the other way.
