Pros

Lots of opportunities to get promoted, looks good on resume and pays decently well, good benefits/perks, good work life balance, some people are really smart and down to earth.

Cons

Inner toxic culture that doesn't easily come out unless you are exposed to certain things, failures from other companies leading here, HR and employee experience are a joke, lots of management just promoted without any proper training and values are said but not implemented (hypocrites). Leadership knows about this and is a a major part of the problem.

Pros

Supportive people, a strong culture, and meaningful flexibility are the biggest positives. I've had the chance to work with thoughtful colleagues who care about doing good work and helping each other succeed. There are solid opportunities to learn, build relationships across teams, and contribute in a way that feels impactful.

Cons

Workloads can be heavy during busy periods, and priorities can sometimes shift quickly (which is expected in growing companies)
