Pros
Decent pay for a starter job, good food, everyone gets an office (either your own or shared with 1 other person). Fun campus, comfortable physical environment and good amenities. Good insurance benefits. Meaningful, impactful work. And the Madison area is a good place to live despite the inflated housing market.
Kontras
Upper management values productivity and profit over the health and safety of employees. Upper management does not respect employees or seriously consider their feedback. Recruiters lie about hours expectations; overtime work of at least a few hours every week is necessary and demanded. PTO benefits meets expectations but are not enough to make up for the extra hours required every week. The response to COVID has been abhorrent. They are requiring us to fully return to working from work with no evidence the pandemic is subsiding and no evidence that working from campus is any more beneficial to employees or the company than working from home, and they aren't even requiring masks. Perceived productivity is actively valued more highly than employee health and safety.
