Pros

Nice work-life balance. Good place for a stable career. Generally fun people with good intentions. Teams are relatively balanced and the company tries to support a team building culture.

Cons

Lack of strong middle management. Development programs are working, but not quick enough. Upper management seems distanced from the rest of the population.

Pros

I work with diverse and supportive people. Teams and leaders demonstrate the will to respond to worker needs with kindness and respect. On the operational level, teams are highly flexible and adapt quickly to changes when provided proper support. Work-life balance is high priority for the people I interact with.

Cons

The company has difficulty holding on to talent in tech fields since a good chunk of the focus has to be allocated to art/design and production instead. CEOs come and go every few years, leading to instability. For some teams, the process remains overly complex and inefficient because of misalignments between leadership/engineering and ops team users. No formal humanist policy around AI & robotics yet.
