Pros
- Competitive compensation package (at least initially). Over time, I observed the company rehiring former employees impacted by layoffs at noticeably lower compensation levels. - Exposure to colleagues from many countries and cultures, which provided meaningful learning opportunities. - Strong brand recognition and market hype that can be valuable for career visibility. - Frequent travel opportunities for certain roles.
Cons
- The culture is highly toxic in many areas, driven by unhealthy internal competition where people advance by undermining others. - Many managers lack leadership experience and are not adequately trained to manage teams, develop talent, or support employee well-being. - Interactions can often feel arrogant and disrespectful, which erodes collaboration and morale. - Employees outside the United States frequently struggle to be heard or taken seriously. In several cases, concerns (including those related to harassment and minority representation) were not treated with appropriate attention.
