Pros

Some really competent people work here. Many opportunities for advancement. Old Post Office office space in the Chicago Loop is really nice (can work there even if based in the Deerfield office). Doctor’s office/gym/pharmacy/physical therapist on site at Deerfield HQ.

Cons

Work life balance was very poor. Company keeps trying to cut costs which means they try to do more with less which leads to people working crazy hours. No bonus payout in 2019, 50% bonus payout in 2020 due to company performance (company wide). It’s tough to stick around when the bonus is inconsistent and there are other companies to work for that are consistent with bonuses. Pay in general is lagging behind the current market (as of beginning of 2022). Old school business model and not sure if the management team in place is the right team to right the ship. Atrocious stock performance over the past couple of years, feels like mgmt is grasping at straws trying to get something to stick

Cons

- Work life balance (must work 2 half Saturdays a month & sometimes work demand necessitates longer hours) - Low compensation for lower team members means difficulty in recruiting and retention. -Work duties expanded with reduction in front end support - Overload of focus on too many metrics
