Pros

Good pay, unlimited time off, endless amount of training available on LMS, challenging work, great ERGs, wide range of roles available, awesome coworkers with many years of real experience willing to share.

Cons

Raises are inconsistent, no stock options for employees below Director level, no employee stock purchase plan, antiquated and demoralizing 9-block performance rating system.

Pros

Good pay, great benefits, great people to work with, boss is great, etc.

Cons

Company is undergoing transformation, so it's a bit chaotic. Have to work with old stuff and new stuff at the same time. Hopefully that will change as we transform further.
