Pros

Benefits are decent and vacation weeks are decent, but only for USA standards

Cons

This is an incredibly abusive company. They sell themselves as innovative, but really they just have money to throw around and they try to make every team 'lean' which means every support team to completely overworked and always in desperate need or more people. They also prefer bonuses over raises, which screws over the people making less money.

Pros

The fact that I don't have to be in the office anymore is a giant PLUS. No more drama, no more managers coming up and intimidating employees, no more useless meetings, no more office politics.

Cons

Everything they tell you about this place take with a grain of salt. The truth is worse. It is a very very very political place. It is very bureaucratic. It is all about PowerPoints, facetime and blindly drinking the Koolaid. If you are the type of person who will not question anything and will just follow orders without rocking the boat - you will do awesome here. If you have any amount of ambition and character you will not survive. Toxic culture, backward looking, underwhelming place that will pretend to be something it is not.
