Pros

Reasonable wages, new buildings to work in and perks for logo wear.

Cons

Absolutely do not work here if you want to be allowed to take time off for a visit to the doctor, to care for a sick child, or to go on vacation. If you plan many, many months in advance, you will likely get time off but there is an absolute paranoia about sick days and other absences that is hard to understand. Work/Life balance is terrible and employees are pressured to work even when sick or recovering from surgery. Miniscule mistakes are heavily penalized and management is very poorly trained. Backbiting among employees is common and internal politics decide promotions, time off and other important factors. Favoritism is rampant as well.

Pros

Lots of opportunities - internal promotions are common. Strong sense of values and "why" we do what we do. People genuinely care about their work. Compensation has significantly improved in recent years. Excellent benefits package and unheard of 401k.

Cons

No work from home. Some teams complain of work-life-balance challenges - not everywhere.

Pros

Great benefits and pay for the area, steady hours

Cons

CEO was absolutely too focused on keeping "culture" and "perception to the outside world" in his control. Dress code requirements, even for back office employees, has been harsh. They have an employee survey they require is filled out each year, but they never actually listen to the feedback. As well as the requirement to show up early to every meeting, otherwise you would be "late" in his eyes. Management is controlled under his thumb and there were many issues with my boss when I worked there. The time off policies are horrendous and make it impossible for work/life balance to happen. There is so much more, but I want to keep my anonymity. Now that Rick Hein has retired, OSCU might have a fighting chance.
