Pros

Salary, benefits... I wish I could add more.

Cons

They expect their employees to submit tickets for things like paper towels, toilet paper, or any other office needs. They did not have a regular janitor service. This was very difficult as a pregnant employee that needed that.

Hi there, thanks for sharing some of your insights with us. We regret hearing that you feel like the moral of the company is decreasing. This is certainly not the way we want our employees to feel. We do recommend discussing this further with your HR manager. He or she can look into this further with you. Hopefully, that will lead to some improvements. We wish you all the best with your career.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review on your experience working with us in Bothell.

I'll make sure to forward your anonymous feedback to a local team, for their consideration. I do want to wish you all the best in your career going forward. Take care!
