Pros

Excellent work-life balance. Hours are flexible. Of course you're expected to get the job done, but workload isn't outrageous that it's not possible in <50 hours/wk. There is the occasional week that is 60+, but no different than any other tech jobs. Excellent benefits. The only local player with better benefits is MSFT. Collaborative environment. People are very willing to help. Compensation is good.

Cons

There's a definite lack of domain knowledge due to overly complex/convoluted legacy systems and turnover. Many times the older systems need to be reverse-engineered to figure out what's going on. There is a company-wide initiate to correct this. Slow to innovate, largely due to bureaucratic overhead, overly heavy processes and paperwork to release features to production. Many teams are still not agile in their development practices, and the typical and somewhat frequent re-prioritization from management causes unneeded churn. After 3 months, haven't been given clear picture of career path.

Pros

Constant state of transformation is ripe environment for new hires and functional experts from big name tech companies

Cons

Pre-covid the culture was really special. Collaborative, engaging, people-centric, with a unifying mission to enable travel for the world. Since covid there has been a revolving door of executive leadership, and with each round, they throw out the current strategy to try something "new" without building from the current or past successes. Constant change, but no clear vision or strategy of what they are trying to change to. Lack of strategy and low risk tolerance leads to too many priorities with not enough investment to move the needle in anything. Quarterly layoffs, but executed quietly team by team so as not to make news. No psychological safety. Talent strategy since covid is to hire externally over internal promotions to gain "functional expertise" therefore difficult to grow your career. Siloed divisions not working towards common goal. Lacks operating model maturity needed for a company of this size likely do to revolving door of execs and priorities. A cash cow company with an identity crisis trying to be an AI innovator. Build vs buy mentality slows them down. Too many exec pet projects that aren't vetted with proper business cases.
