Pros
The company as a whole really cares about Texas and its customers. As a data scientist, there is a lot of data to work with. The tools are pretty good (Azure databricks). Sometimes the culture is really cool (H-E-B Live felt like one of those tech company meetings with tons of cheering and free swag). I'm going to give this place 3/5. (1 star for my experience, but 5 stars for what I think it could be.) I have hope for the future here for data science. There were other teams that were doing great work, I've heard that some of the hurdles I faced are no longer impeding things.
Cons
No path to promotion if you aren't the chosen one. Managers are unlikely to shield you from unrealistic demands from executives, so be prepared either to disappoint people or to be overworked. Bad directors / managers can chew through the careers of 5-10 bright people below them before any action is taken by upper management. Sometimes the culture is petty (one time a director shared to the team that people had been complaining that team members weren't turning on their cameras for zoom meetings. Not sure why the complainers couldn't just directly tell the non-camera user in the meeting "Hey, could you turn your camera on?" instead of tattling to our leader about it later. Felt middle-school-ish.)
