Pros

Your colleagues as a whole are really smart and at a level of quality you won't see in many other places. You will learn a lot and the training is really strong.

Cons

It's all politics and lip service. Everybody talks about diversity and "listening" but nobody does anything. Promotions are really blurred and nothing makes sense. A lot of it is based on who you know. At the end of the day, there is really no innovation and the focus is on optimizing profitability with very little regard for long-term customer strategy. Instead of squeezing customers, why not actually innovate better for them to scale the business instead.

Immature "leaders". Routine backstabbing. Constant "fire drills". No associate appreciation. False support.

Pros

Decent pay, very easy to get promoted if you lack any skill and just know the right way to signal that you are doing way more work than you actually are doing on a daya to day basis; Good new hire program from a social standpoint

Cons

Very hit or miss; If you get placed in a bad team, there will not be enough work. You will not develop any skills. You will get punished for having any views different than the herd. Obscure belief that "everyone produces the same amount of work" and the only thing that matters for promotions is anything besides your actual job. Work life balance is too good in the sense that 50% of the employees work about 5-10 hours a week total. Its great if youre a parent with 4 kids and dont care about growing your career. Otherwise, it sucks
