Pros
Easy processes You will not be held accountable if you are in with the right people Ego boost to feel like the smartest kid in the room constantly Great opportunities to advance if you are a white male.
Cons
Fake "nice" culture No diversity Archaic methods and approaches In an August All Hands meeting the CEO sipped champagne and reassured everyone that it was business as usual, that there was no need to panic. A few weeks later we were selecting the first list of hundreds of names of people to be laid off. This number was padded for the press by adding headcount from an arm of the business that wasn't impacted by the reduction. The percentage reported was wildly lower than what happened in reality. Dishonest at best. I gave a thumbs down on six month business outlook because I don't know if the exec team knows what that means, or could forecast for the next week given that shallow and poorly landed All Hands.
