The company offers many benefits and recognition, and is characterized by listening to its employees. It has flexible hours and is quite diverse and open. The PLR (Profit Sharing) varies between 1.8, 2.8, or 3.8 salaries, depending on your performance rating, which is given annually.
Promotions take a very long time to happen. Despite having a whole process for tracking employees' career development, the company cannot provide many opportunities. Salaries are well below market rates, which they justify with the number of benefits.
