Pros

A place to sit. Sometimes attend pointless meetings. Lots of talking.

Cons

Nothing is really getting done since IB took over. If something does get done it's not what's needed or isn't actually useful. A lot of reskinning systems, i.e. lipstick on the same pig. 4-5 riffs in 2 years. Constant staff turn-over. Under market pay.

Each Team has a Unique Life Style

Pros

For some departments/teams, you get out of works around 5. And for 2 days out of 5 every week you can work from home. For my previous team, we barely have any free time. We are paid slightly higher, but it is definitely not worth how much more effort we have to put into the job. Make sure you ask about the work schedule in your interview.

Cons

Just like any other big companies, it's almost impossible to move up unless you stay there for years. Salary is not great. It's so easy to find somewhere else that pays a lot better. Boring. The job they ask you do is really repetitive and boring. Once KKR took over, the company became worse. KKR didn't change anything besides firing people and getting rid of all the snacks in the kitchen. This is their understanding of "efficiency".

Pros

WebMD was recently acquired by another company (Internet Brands). This review applies to working before that company. A lot of technical debt everywhere meant that there were reasonable challenges to manage. Many sharp folks although the company clearly cannot let go of dead weight either.

Cons

Seven managers in a few years shows a real problem with stability. The culture was (and this is past because most of those people are now gone) was unfortunately not shareholder or consumer focused.
