Pros

Flexible work arrangements Competitive benefits but some, like mental health days, can be hard to take depending on your manager Overall, colleagues are collaborative, smart, fun and respectful

Cons

Senior leadership still lacking in terms of transparency, failure to create and cascade strategy in timely manner and making organization too top heavy. Need more hires who can execute. Also, with one or two exceptions, the more senior hires do not have the experience needed to lead teams and effectively affect change management.
