Pros

A great place to work, strong benefits and the people here really care about each other and doing well. Personalized catered lunch, fancy new office coming, transportation subsidy, epic company party once per year, the list goes on. Theres a lot to love about working here.

Cons

A core value is about being transparent, but they are far from that when it comes to pay across groups. Loyal employees get paid much less than external hires. They do more work, for less pay.. but not very unique to CG though CG boasts career mobility, but it really is just interdepartmental applied for promotions. Sales will stay in sales, finance will stay in finance, HR will stay in HR, and so on.. they dont "take chances" for their employees. If an external hire is better suited for a position, they are getting it. Work is team dependent. Some teams kind of coast along, while others are crushing work, overwhelming amounts at times. Chose your team wisely. Moving to 3 days hybrid per week, no longer competitive from a hybrid / flexibility standpoint.
