Pros

There is zero accountability, so if you are a turd looking to be the “grey man” and just collect a paycheck then you have come to the right place!

Cons

Toxic leadership all the way up the chain to the Executive level; dishonest, pretentious, aloof, and extreme cognitive dissidents. Lots of other issues as well, but no point trying to mention any of that as it will never be fixed with the folks that currently run the company.
