Pros

All companies of this size inevitably have issues, but this place by far has the best working environment I've experienced. Beyond the benefits (which are amazing), I've never seen leadership take responsibility for the bad things, offer personal apologies, etc. The amount of ownership and dedication is inspiring. In comparison to many of the other large companies I've worked for, I feel I finally have found a place I can call home. Great people, great benefits, great growth opportunity. This place has it all.

Cons

Largely due to its size and attempt at a flat matrix a lot of people get left behind. Teams will be doing the same work without knowing it, so some more top down communication would be helpful.

Pros

The people. So nice, so passionate (albeit in pockets). Benefits! Great insurance and vacation.

Cons

Quite corporate. Rigid structure. There is reluctance to take risks. Difficult to move between projects or roles as a producer.

Pros

Great benefits, pays well, can work on some very interesting problems.

Cons

Work hours are from 10-7 and hardly anyone actually works that, so stuff can move at a snail pace. Getting help from central teams can be painful, especially if they're way off hours. Some of the culture can get a bit overwhelming too and you can end up feeling pretty lonely if you don't drink the koolaid.
