Pros

Genuine, nice, and hard working people to work with - keep the company alive and worth coming to the offices for. Great lunches + snack/coffee/fruit options. Good offices and good office culture - plenty of events.

Cons

I feel many employees have a "live to work" attitude and it seeps into the company culture. Extremely metrics focused, don't look at nuance. A lot of Director plus level have scaled and been promoted with the business as it grew, going from IC's to now senior leadership - resulting in people now leading orgs at an enterprise scale that have never done so before. Large amount of employees based in US/Americas - EMEA works around US times and APAC forgotten often.
