Pros

Relatively relaxed work pace compared to many other tech companies. Better work-life balance.

Cons

Culture and values are oversold. It does not trickle down to line managers who have their own baggage from their previous experiences and work culture. People don't seem so driven to work that work does not seem work, it's so enjoyable! That's not great for the younger workers to thrive in the industry and be sought after. The proprietary programming language most developers use, is also an issue. It's generally hard to get in even through internal referrals!

Pros

- Flexibility depends on your team - Benefits are ok - A lot of nice people who join the company, but unfortunately they leave

Cons

- The organizations are very political. - From the operations perspective behind from what the rest of the world is doing. - If you challenge your management, the response is the door is open for you to leave. Very close minded and very top to bottom culture. - Subgroups in the same departments work in silos. No cohesion. - No transparency
