Business Outlook

Pros

Management/C-suite consistently engages with employees. There is a strong focus on the future and the company provides employees learning opportunities. The starting wages are relatively competitive for my area. The projects I am working on have been rewarding and enjoyable.

Cons

Employee perks/benefits/pay shrink year-over-year. This is due to salary increases being outpaced by inflation, increases in insurance being passed on, and pto benefits being capped and not paid out. When management is given a tough question, it seems to be side-stepped with a "pc" answer.
