Pros

- Trips to Arizona during the summer and Chicago during the winter - Lots of time and money wasting on contractors and remote employees - Your next job is going to feel like heaven - Plenty of unnecessary meetings just to listen to leadership convince you everything is going great - +1 star only because I wasn't fired from their layoffs

Cons

- You will not be paid anywhere near market value (worse if you live in an area with HCOL) - They will micromanage you down to the minute - You will be ignored - If you're a contractor good luck getting converted to full time - They cut corners in weird ways to afford all the contractors, unnecessary business trips and bonuses for upper management (again, micromanaging down to the minute when you clock in) - Health/dental coverage was modified to be cheaper for hourly employees so good luck with your doctor or dentist bill if you visit more than once a year

Pros

There are some very dedicated, talented and well intentioned people who work there. For awhile it felt like the organization was building and doing great things. The salary felt fairly competitive with the industry standard.

Cons

Don't look too closely under the hood if you don't want to stop believing in the illusion. The product is no longer as strong as it once was, the PD and CS have gone way downhill, they care more about profit than people and they are no longer mission driven but success and money driven. They talk a good game, but many people there are ruthless so watch your back. They do a good job of making you feel like it's the best place to work and you are lucky to be there, for awhile, but when the blook is off the rose, watch out.
