Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay Great benefits Decent perks Culturally aware Fast pace Work along side smart, capable people Generally people are also very nice Challenging and rewarding work Mission driven Products you can stand behind

Cons

Senior leadership is unrealistic with what can be delivered to the street. This causes bad behavior by other senior leaders since they are unreachable goals. This overarching problem is deteriorating the culture. Continuous high growth mode year after year and severe challenges with getting work done in an overly matrix org. Underfunded enabling groups unable to keep up with demands.

Business Outlook

Pros

Overall company value is great. Colleagues were awesome. Great experience especially during the merger times.

Cons

Old semi-retired aunties holding high positions in HR team who insist they are always right. When something goes wrong, the blame goes to junior employees. The role I was doing average tenure was 4-6 months. And as of today, they are still hiring the same role. Shame
