Pros

Innovation is happening and great people. Compensation is good.

Cons

Everyone internally jokes about how slow-moving we are and, layers of corporate leadership that are disconnected from the needs of the business and are focused pointless corporate projects. Not focused on efficiency, just focused on moving jobs offshore and unfortunately, blindly tied to SAP despite it introducing inefficiency everywhere.
