Pros

I love the day-to-day of my job here, working on great books

Cons

No one department seems to know what the others are doing; annual reviews are frequently skipped, systems are out of date, longtime employees don't believe the company has their interests in mind. You feel very much a cog in a wheel.

Pros

Fully remote with all necessary tech provided, weekday schedule, great benefits, good leadership, small close-knit teams, generous PTO in addition to paid holidays

Cons

Base salary could be better but is offset with benefits package. Employee retention is high (a huge plus IMO) butcould limit upward mobility if you're looking for it.
