Pros

If you can be in the top 10% of the performers - opportunities do open up and career growth is fast but be prepared to put in long hours and hard work. Company does offer a lot of events for employees and people here do know you by name and teams do work together.

Cons

Most of top level management uses too many traditional methods even though the motto is "Breaking with Tradition." Pay is not in line with industry for the entry level and mid level positions (most employees) but surprisingly for top level employees, pay exceeds the industry standard - again that top 10% I mentioned. I would suggest staying in the Sales or Marketing departments at this company.

Pros

Pay and benefits were great. My direct manager was fantastic

Cons

Working environment on the team I joined was highly toxic. To the point where if I knew it was as bad I would have never accepted the job offer. Ended up staying 9 months before finding another job.
