Pros

Coworkers who truly want to help each other. Opportunities to get involved in various projects. Some flex time allowed, but not all departments can take advantage of it.

Cons

Top management that can only be described as bullies to make their projects top priority. Hardly any innovation going on. Promotions happen more frequently in select business units so if you're not in the right BU, you need to leave the company to grow your career. Employee morale is terrible.

Pros

Decent benefits Hybrid WFH schedule Some really great direct managers

Cons

Chaotic and disorganized, with old outdated backend systems. Work performance and output not generally recognized: people who do very little work are often paid the same, or more than people who do double or triple the workload, and are allowed to continue with the company while other shoulder the load. Once you are on a team or part of a BU - good luck making a move to another team or BU. The place is a revolving door for a lot of positions, but once you learn a skillset they are unlikely to allow a move. The sales team runs this place, so be prepared to be bullied constantly by them, even when you are told to gatekeep.
