Pros

Talent at mid and lower levels. There are roles and teams that still may provide a positive work environment but in the ever shifting quicksand of this company- I wouldn't assume anything is a given over a 12 -24 month period of time.

Cons

With a revolving door of the most senior roles at the company, leaders lead from a place of fear which creates a truly toxic culture which lacks vision and severely lacks culture. This purports to be a value based environment but that is lip service. No one can tell you the vision or values of the company. There are slow lay-offs happening all of the time and many of the best people are quietly leaving on their own. I wouldn't recommend anyone from my family or friends to take a position here - and I don't think many current employees would either .

Pros

People, Mission, Culture, Technology, Remote. You work on projects and technologies that actually impact and improves the day to day lives of people around you, the community and the Country

Cons

Pay, No much room for upward mobility. If you are a high performer, you'll struggle as the structure rewards years spent in the company vs level of expertise or experience.
