Pros

Very smart individuals work there. Pride in the product they make. Endless job opportunities.

Cons

Horrible work/life balance. Minimal respect for free time outside of the office. Unrealistic deadlines and fire drills. Immense pressure to deliver. Stupid amounts of meetings and powerpoint presentations. Very arrogant culture. Mgmt cares more about metrics than people. Not enough resources to prepare for future.

Pros

Employee scholar program is robust

Cons

Upper management is out of touch.

Interesting product but if youre looking for a good work life balance or decent compensation, stay away.
