Pros

Wish I could say I had the pleasure to state some pros.

Cons

The hiring process is if you have applied and did not pass, apply again 6mos from the first application date. I have been attempting to get a job since 2015. I know very well I am qualified. 6mos ago I made it through to the onsite testing. I did not pass one half of the test, so I was told that I could re-apply 6mos later. Here it is, 6mos later..I re-applied, with the same work history. The only thing that changed was that I am now licensed in the state of Florida and Texas. Which you would think a company would appreciate. Less money they have to spend for licensing.... This time when I applied I was not given the opportunity to take the assessment which is part of the application process. Instead my application was immediately denied and when I spoke with an HR rep (because I thought there was a glitch) she was not only nasty, but her exact words were "There was no glitch, we reviewed your application and decided to move forward with other candidates". Now, I applied with the same experience that I had previously. So, to receive that response with nothing more was very unfair. So, technically there is no 6mos grace period. If you fail the first time, that was your final chance.

Pros

Interesting problems to work on. Good benefits. Decent pay.

Cons

Managers will gaslight you and upper leadership is constantly changing, so expect projects you're working on to be thrown out every 6 months. Many people burn out and quit after some time and are never back filled, so you'll be expected to take on their workload. Some of my colleagues were working 80 hour work weeks to keep up with the work load and yet told they were not performing well enough. There also wasn't much diversity.
