Review from Engineering Dept

The 401k matching is pretty sub-standard

Review from Engineering Dept

Being an internal candidate seems to be a dis-advantage when moving to new roles, as the previous job title prohibits a "big jump" in compensation to the new role. Would like to see the critical impact available to employees.
