Pros

Decent benefits and fringe benefits Training has improved Annual consideration for promotion and merit increase, bonuses

Cons

The workload can be unbearable if you are a competent employee, and there is no relief in sight as there is lack of transparency around things like hiring freezes. Those who do not pull their weight are allowed to skate by, for the most part, while others pick up the slack. Leadership is incredibly disconnected from those who are doing the labor, which has only gotten worse as physical offices continue to close. They push back on ideas that are new unless they thought of it, you happen to be from the right legacy organization, or a male employee suggests it. Unpaid overtime cannot be the only solution to every problem. Especially when combined with blaming everything on staff taking PTO.

Pros

Generally good benefits, flexible work environment, good coworkers.

Cons

Potentially fine for a bit, but not somewhere for long term or a career. Some exceptionally poor senior leaders (site tech), can vary widely by area of the company. Experience day to day often was directly at odds to values voiced by CEO in town halls. Leadership has regularly ignored feedback from roles working closely with customers while making frequent changes in product development plans, making it difficult to explain to customers why things aren't getting fixed that have been broken for years while development efforts focus on things users aren't asking for.
