Pros

Good company, competitive salary, good benefits, nice offices in big cities

Cons

incompetent leadership, tendency of blaming others for their own decision when goes wrong, acting as a senior leader for their managers, but actually very poor leadership skills that are draining for employees, work on weekends after hours, holidays, poor balance, lot of pressure and no manager support

Pros

Some of the people are genuinely rockstars in their crafts. The insurance is top notch and PTO is generous.

Cons

Company culture and morale are awful. The salaries are low, policies are dated and not equitable, product and internal tech is dated. Rapid changes due to poor leadership and frequent turnover. Leadership does not seem to possess the ability to pivot once decisions have been made, even if the decision was the wrong one. Company personality is archaic and as far away from forward-thinking as possible.
