Pros

Salaries and benefits are not bad at all.

Cons

Tasks are undoable completely Overwhelming in terms of: comms, changes, projects, fast paced, responsabilities and commitments, Demmands from management. Stressful most of the time. Anxiaety is the word for Managers. Regular day for a Manager is a crazy and challenging one. Part of the staff of Managers are on sick leave for psicologycal issues. Company stands for values, principles and tenets they barely exist in real life. Higher Managers only worried for metrics, numbers and data, they never care for persons, very sad. After 3 years in the company, sadly I have this opinion fron the business.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
