Pros

- Flexible work schedule and relaxed office environment. Depending on what team you are on, managers are generally flexible about working from home, going to appointments, etc.

Cons

- Absolutely no documented process for anything. Working on a project is a complete free-for-all. If something goes wrong, there is no accountability because there is no process for anything. Co-workers will throw one another under the bus in a heartbeat to save themselves. - Because there is no process for anything, everything is urgent or last minute. Therefore, everything is done to minimum standards. "Just get it out the door" attitude. - Leadership is a joke. They say they will set SMART goals but they don't. Nobody in the company has clear goals and means to achieve them. Nobody in a leadership position answers emails or has any idea what people below them are working on, and vice versa. Management 100% older, white men that simply talk down to anyone below them. - Pay is poor. You will not get paid for promotions. No bonus', incremental annual salary increases, not even a holiday party. Do not ever expect any sort of employee activity/party paid for. - No help from HR on anything personal you need to get done for yourself/family. - Constant layoffs and turnover. They will eliminate entire departments to save money and then hire consultants to do the work at double the cost. Absolute no value of dedicated employees. Just want to hire young people that they don't have to pay anything.

Pros

Ability to position your ideas to leadership and have your voice heard.

Cons

The industry is growing at a torrid pace and urgency is key - this means that customer expectations for responses are immediate and with a large company, sometimes it can take a while to get the correct answer.
