Pros

Opportunity to grow/learn, within an entry level Marketing position. Average Benefits, including employer 100% match for first 1% and .5% for remaining 5% - 401K, 4 weeks of PTO, $0 Generic Rx, reasonable medical benefits (although the State plan is richer). Company goals & mission , a not-for-profit company who can focus on its members vs. shareholders.

Cons

Low base salary and low increase (5.5% or less), if promoted to Product Manager. Changes are made to job levels without justification, where entry level associates are taken advantage of. Marketing staff has a bad internal reputation. Leadership operates with questionable ethics. Promotions are often based on friendship/likability and conformity to the standards set by a Director/VP vs. actual work performance. Fairness of work distribution questionable. Failure of management to mentor/train all employees. Turnover and constant reorganizations.

I have a supportive team, my leadership encourages work-life balance, the company culture is very pleasing to me, plenty of leadership presence and transparency about company happenings, and the employee benefits are phenomenal.

Cons

I genuinely don't have anything negative to say at this moment.

Pros

Ability to work from home.

Cons

Extremely low salary for 2026. Far too much work to stay afloat. Everyone is on PTO constantly which makes training/help almost impossible. Tenured employees are unavailable majority of the time and leave unfinished work on your plate to deal with.
