Pros
  • Free meals (which are meant to keep you working nonstop and never leave the office)
  • Health and dental insurance
  • Gym reimbursement
Cons
  • Zero diversity and lots of age discrimination.
  • They do not hire women or people over 30; they look for "sales athletes" who can talk about their glory days.
  • Toxic frat/bro culture in every office.
  • Very inexperienced management.
  • All you have to do is outlast the other person, which is very easy.
  • Managers and directors are straight out of college.
  • Massive amounts of turnover and churn.
  • No 401k contribution at all.
  • Zero remote work.
  • If you are not at the HQ office, you will get zero support from HQ and get treated as a second-class citizen.
Advice to Management

Doubt anyone can change the culture at this company.
