Pros

Smart people in certain functions

Cons

Their "commitment" to people and DEI is simply lip service. The HR people are just mouthpieces of management and couldn't care less about employees. They also aren't knowledgeable, responsive nor have good interpersonal skills. Representation of diverse groups is abysmal beyond the C Suite

Business Outlook

Pros

Compared to other similar roles in the industry the salary was above market value.

Cons

Lack of leadership in the competitive cloud market, Management is not being held accountable for a tough market. On-boarding when I first started was atrocious at best. Still felt that there was so much I wasn't taught when I left.
