"As long as you are on a remote based team, there is a lot of flexibility. If your position requires coming to the office, there is not flexibility. If you are unlucky enough to be in office regularly, prepare to be watched closely by leadership noting the number of time you leave your desk to refill water or how long you socialize with others (even if that talking is work related)"

"If you like having control of your own career, run away from here. The backstabbing, cattiness, and two-faced managers make this place worse than junior high. The expectations to pay ratio are hilarious at best, and there were many times where I was teaching my boss how to do things...and I KNOW she was making double what I was.
As far as male colleagues - since there were very few of them - they were treated as kings. Their ideas in meetings - no matter what they were - were always considered and/or praised. Managers were friendly with male colleagues and cordial at best with female colleagues. Men were promoted very quickly. "

"This company is 98% women, with women in high level executive positions, selling product to women and they have some of most anti-woman policies. They want you to work up until you deliver, and my manager actually called me even though she knew I was in labor.
They switched the health insurance so it covers the bare minimum - every time I go to the Dr for a bi-annual check-up if I have something more than my blood pressure taken in charged. I honestly believe I would be better off dropping my insurance and negotiating directly with my doctor.
Management is not supportive of pregnant women or families. I have been chastised for taking my lunch to pump and as a result had to give up breastfeeding.
If you are single, enjoy working long hours without recognition and don't plan on having kids anytime soon this is the place to be. The sad part is it wasn't always like this and I see it as getting worse."
