Pros

- Some unbelievable employees you get to work with - Decent office perks

Cons

- absolute chaos from the moment I got there to my last day. Things are left half done until something else is thrown at you and the cycle repeats - shocking amount of favoritism from the managers - higher ups will throw you under the bus at first opportunity to cover themselves - astonishing lack of efficiency. Lot of being busy for the sake of being busy via meetings that could have been emails - resources that could be used to solidify teams are instead allocated to parties and weird artwork - general work/life balance was nonexistent
