Pros

Nobody is going to waste time trying to convince you to stay.

Cons

Pay is below average by skillset. Management at all levels has toxic attitude toward subordinate employees, which has led to high levels of turnover and loss of significant institutional knowledge. IT departments in particular are hurting, because employees recognize how management has been 'cleaning house'. Promotions clearly based on self-confidence, appearances, and enthusiasm, but not talent.

Pros

Interesting problems to work on. Good benefits. Decent pay.

Cons

Managers will gaslight you and upper leadership is constantly changing, so expect projects you're working on to be thrown out every 6 months. Many people burn out and quit after some time and are never back filled, so you'll be expected to take on their workload. Some of my colleagues were working 80 hour work weeks to keep up with the work load and yet told they were not performing well enough. There also wasn't much diversity.
