Pros

When you first start, you love it! They trick you into feeling like you matter and that you are heard. The benefits are great, people are friendly, at first. They trick you into a false sense of security and you truly love it at first. The pay is competitive and that makes you want to stay.

Cons

Where to begin...they have favorites. If you don't fit in or are not liked, they will gun for you. They will write you up for every little thing to try and get you out the door. I was a leader, so I know this for a fact and have seen it first hand. Once you are not liked, they will get rid of you. It is very toxic and hours are very long. If you call in, you get wrote up. This company used to care about their EEs, but when they went public, it all went down the drain. They now care about appearance and numbers rather than EEs. Save yourself the headache and run!

Pros

* Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

Cons

Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
