Pros

The pay and the benefits. Nothing else.

Cons

Terrible work-life balance in a high pressure, cut throat, backstabbing environment with a primary focus on the numbers. Leadership is disconnected and constantly changing, with no evident succession planning or mentoring. Horrible culture with minimal collaboration, very high turnover, and a low overall morale. This is neither a good place to work, nor is it a good place to stay.
