Pros

The pantry - free soda, juice, tea, coffee, water, fruit, crackers....

Cons

They tend to place people in management positions that aren't management material. People inherit a management position because they hire one person, realize there needs to be a team to support that person, and then they're automatically a manager. The culture is terrible. Nobody builds relationships to try and work together to solve problems. Never go to HR if you have a problem with management because they will always side with the manager no matter what. HR is also not honest. You can be in the same organization, but not have to abide by the same culture rules. Examples: Working from home is either banned or used up to 4 days a week all depending on a manager. There's no consistency. They don't pay attention to how to appeal to all generations. Salaries are way lower than the market value despite what they will try and tell you.

Pros

AB is a solid mid-sized company with a really good work-life balance. The culture is friendly and supportive.

Cons

Compensation is relatively lower compared to larger firms, especially big tech or larger financial institutions.
