Pros

relatively easy job....members are usually sane and support is so much easier since we don't have to support the Family Tree Maker software anymore now that its been handed over to MacKiev.

Cons

Trying to move up in the company is a horrible game; aka company culture/politics are awful. Pay is meh, job is stressful. Really high turnover rate means a flood of new hires and accompanying incompetence.

Pros

Great company culture, supportive team, smooth onboarding process, strong career stability, and meaningful work. My interview experience was very positive, and the recruiting and onboarding teams were helpful, responsive, and professional throughout the process.

Cons

There is always a learning curve when joining a new company, especially while understanding internal systems and processes, but the team has been very supportive.
