Pros

I love the company, the senior leadership, and the mission to help people. I get to work with some incredibly brilliant people.

Cons

Per usual, don’t expect people managers to help you with your career. Actually, you might Get one who actively tries to use you to make themselves look better, in an unethical way. I blame the reports and job market… brings out the worst in people.
