Good company going in the wrong direction

Pros

Company seems to do the right things when it comes to employees especially around the virus situation.

Cons

A company this size and profitability should have better healthcare benefits. The company's diversity programs are shoved down your throat constantly. Yearly review program gives everyone a trophy no matter your accomplishments.

Terrible place if you have a family

Pros

Really none. The Sparks location is terrible.

Cons

Awful work life balance- the worst I have ever experienced. Never have any solid plans, things always change at the last minute. Everything is run by committee, and nothing ever gets decided in any finalized way. Totally disrespectful of people with families.
