Pros

Flexible work hours (depending on department), cool boss, some of the people are friendly, free books, lots of down time

Cons

Work can be extremely boring and seem pointless; most of the books I work on are extremely bad. Many of the people I work with are unhelpful and uncooperative. Pay is unbelievably bad.

Pros

Fully remote with all necessary tech provided, weekday schedule, great benefits, good leadership, small close-knit teams, generous PTO in addition to paid holidays

Cons

Base salary could be better but is offset with benefits package. Employee retention is high (a huge plus IMO) butcould limit upward mobility if you're looking for it.
