Pros

You will get to experience some of the cool parts of being in an exclusive company. Stock purchase discounts.

Cons

The previous mentions of it being a "boys club" are partially true. Not a very diverse company overall. No people of color in management in most of the company. Lack of relevant experience severely damages the employee experience. Pay is not competitive for the job itself and no growth potential. startup vibes are very heavy in culture, expect surprise trips. slow work days as a result of being a new brand leaves team members feeling undervalued. management can be questionable depending on the location and department you work in.

Pros

They will pay for overtime.

Cons

You will never be off anymore. Once you are lied tonin orientation about how great the company is, you will get the rude awakening of being forced to work 12 hour days, 6 days per week.

Tough.

Pros

Most colleagues are absolutely wonderful

Cons

The inefficiencies make it nearly an impossible place to work, due in part to the redundancies that exist in mid-upper to upper management and continual restructuring of departments. Because of this, no one knows who the final decision maker is which leads to no one taking ownership of programs. Losing months trying to get one decision made to kick off projects is incredibly common. If you can roll with it, you'll be good. But people who like structure and general processes, beware.
