Pros

Hands down the smartest people I have ever worked with. The CEO really seems to care about the company and "doing the right thing". Share a lot of confidential information and plans on the company's short-term and long-term goals.

Cons

Although CEO cares and other executives stress company's "core values" of respect, integrity, and results orientation, executives don't take action against those that don't display those values due to favoritism of certain employees. However, company is more than willing to fire someone they don't care for that doesn't display those values. Also, if you are not an executive's favorite you have limited chance for promotion or increasingly challenging work. Some employees are great at keeping confidential information private, but other employees share confidential information with whomever they feel like, so you really need to watch who you say things to and in front of. In general I believe this is due the young age and inexperience of many employees, who do not have mentors or managerial discipline (due to just as many young and inexperienced managers).

Pros

Lots of potential across their portfolio. Standard benefits. OK work/life balance (if you're remote). Very interested in creating a culture of improvement - but not necessarily innovation like you'd expect at a software company (See Cons).

Cons

Parent company is way too involved and tries to run this software company like a hardware company (which is most of their portfolio). Aging tech and design of their product portfolio. There was a very toxic political culture when I was there, but that may have changed. Lots of brain drain over the past few years of their most experience leaders and software engineers. No equity (except for some "high potential" hires and some VPs and above... which creates rifts between the haves, the have nots and management - it's common that a high demand new hire gets equity like AI engineers and data scientists, but their manager does not have equity and has to be able to answer questions about their equity as part of their comp.
