Pros

Good pay and "unlimited" paid time off

Cons

Not a serious place to work. Hire people that lack basic expertise. Treat employees like elementary school kids (name 3 things you learned from the this meeting). Higher level management is rude and condescending yet dedicate a year to training. They created an internal mobility department as a means to weed out employees that are not happy in their current position. There is no possibility for internal mobility. The interview process for this job was 3 months. By the end of the process that job I was offered was not even clear anymore.

Pros

Resourceful and makes a good effort as a company overall to make sure employees are encouraged to share and contribute ideas. Welcoming to what you want to say than many other companies.

Cons

I can’t tell if it is other teams. But for my team the job has been very demanding, and being pushed to get things done faster and faster can be frustrating, especially when you are new are trying to learn and comprehend complex systems. Meetings can overload times to get any stuff done, and sometimes you can be micromanaged to a point you can become overtly stressed out. also if you are not a Republican, Libertarian, or at least pro Conservatism; you should keep that to yourself. Your political alignment like it or not can and will be used against you.
