Pros

- great culture and values - fast paced but with a significant focus on work-life balance - many different people to interact with and learn from, that all have different roles and profiles - huge and very complex business, which is very good to learn from - great ambition and growth potential - speaking from a Data Science perspective, the potential for projects and applications is immense, and the company has the data to make them possible - the people are simply amazing

Cons

- not every employee has the same level of ambition and competency (this is also felt in-between different offices) - there are currently some management issues in some parts of the company - there are in general too many meetings and decisions take too long to be taken - there is some lack of focus - senior management is trying to accomplish too much at the same time
