Pros

Can turn on a dime in response to the market. Will maintain market leadership at all costs. Is definitely the industry leader.

Cons

Chaos reigns. Politics, silos, lack of good leadership - all lead to a very poorly-managed workforce worldwide. Too much in-breeding to grow the exec ranks. Outsiders are set up for success and tend to leave within 2-3 years.

Pros

Great technology for the era of AI. Stock is doing well.

Cons

High performers have been laid off based on market/biz unit goals. Outsourcing/derisking is a thing lately.

Pros

Fast paced workplace. Lots of data to master SQL and data analysis

Cons

Toxic AF. Everybody seems to lower to 60% effort because the risk of getting tired is immense. If you give 100% and have to take a break and someone sees, the big boss will yell with a grumpy neurotic southern old man voice. Trust me, it is very unpleasant. If you are male, don't get hopes up for a promotion if there are any eligible girls. If it isn't done on purpose, then the general culture of cattiness and gossip will accomplish it anyway.
