Pros
Need to work very little. One of the very few companies where no one works entire December month. Entire department will be off.
Cons
It was a great employer long ago. After Monsanto acquisition, all that is left of is senior management trying to protect their own jobs and be prepared to have zero stability. This is a company which is clueless of market conditions. They like to change operating model every year. By the time you understand what your role is oops there is next operating model change. The only people who should work here are - 1. you really do not care about having a career, 2. You are incompetent to find a job elsewhere. It is a sinking ship which keeps promising better things in the name of DSO. DSO is a joke by itself, anyone who has worked in tech knows about agile or scrum. Calling it DSO will not fix the financial problems of the company or incompetent leadership.
