Pros

Wonderful benefits with some* truly lovely people. * as with any company, there are good and bad folks.

Cons

No true career paths for designers/creatives. Very difficult to negotiate higher pay, even with great annual reviews and data to prove their pay is below industry standard. Upper management is out of touch from average employees and consumers and largely comprised of sociopaths incapable of empathy and true compassion. Leadership team and CEO are treated as if they’re celebrities and “more than” regular people. SUPER creepy. Very much a culture of talking the talk but never walking the walk. A bunch of people delegating but not actual doing the true work.
