A great place to work, but a little chaotic

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benefits, great people. Meets targets every quarter and pays well.

Cons

Not a rocket ship, so the AI tech bubble market doesn't properly value the company. And the company itself is still trying to figure out how AI fits with its story. It's not going to make you FAANG rich.
