Pros

Great compensation, flexibility to work from home.

Cons

This place is a nightmare! Every department is working against each other and only focused on their own priorities. Way too top heavy with a lack of resources and support for the every day specialist level. This was supposed to be a startup yet every process is following VW. In some ways that should be good but the structure and training does not exist and VW does very little to support. Overall, communication and alignment is completely broken. The blind is leading the blind and not even the higher levels are working together.
