Pros

Great culture and people highly skilled and professional

Cons

New leadership doesn’t know what to do with the low stock prices, and new ceo has thrown the value of the company through the window, replacing it with his own “dynamic shared ownership” that nobody understands or have experience with.

Thank you for your feedback on Glassdoor. This new and powerful operating model will help keep us mission-focused while putting our customers and products at the center and more power in the hands of people doing the work. This means faster work cycles and continual improvement, enabling mindsets and behaviors and a significant shift in leadership, to name a few of our key principles. This won't happen overnight. Any change of this scale requires tough questions, challenging decisions, and some temporary discomfort including changes to reduce layers and simplify structures. We're working towards that and are thankful for feedback as we move through the process.

Pros

I met some really great people there. I felt like I was truly a part of something bigger than myself. Loved the goal... health for all, hunger for none. I mentored some brilliant minds, and I am honored to have been there to support them.

Cons

If the team you're working with likes you, you're golden. If you do things a little differently but can still achieve good results, it will not be enough. Basically, fit in or they will find clever ways to get rid of you, like putting you in charge of a project that you have little-to-no experience working on, and then terminate you when things aren't 100% better.
