Pros

The team I worked with was wonderful. Smart people that I learned a lot from. Scott Galloway is a trip. It's all a show, but it's a good one.

Cons

Difficult to network with other departments. A lot of clique behavior. Leadership is atrocious. They let go of the CTO who was an incredible mentor, poured into his team, and was brilliant with code, in favor of (clear cronyism) an under-qualified guy who constantly crossed boundaries and set himself at odds with his team. Terrible move. Also, when negotiating salary when I was first hired, I was promised a bonus %age of my salary. While I did get a bonus, it was nowhere near what they promised. When I mentioned that to management I received an awkward ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ type answer.
