Pros

Great benefits, maternity leave, paternity leave, disability etc. The education pay of 10K a year is amazing, but you do have to stay another year once you graduate. If you're lucky enough to get one, they do have a mentor program, but it might take you three tries to find a mentor. In certain areas, they are doing great, but just be wary of the lab/position (if it sounds new).

Cons

A lot of drama in certain areas... especially spots where people are still in the same position because they don't want to move up or can't. You can be stuck on the same team for 5 years without an end in sight.

Pros

Some managers were exceptional mentors and played a significant role in my professional growth. Good benefits and a reasonable severance package during workforce reductions. Opportunities to work on large-scale marketing initiatives and collaborate with experience professionals across the organization and globe.

Cons

Advancement opportunities often felt inconsistent and lacked any transparency. Leadership frequently emphasized data-driven decision making, but business decisions did not always appear to align with the metrics being presented. The company appeared hesitant to embrace emerging technologies and AI-driven approaches, limiting innovation in multiple areas. Job security is uncertain, and organizational changes occur frequently with little warning. Management quality varied significantly, While some leaders were outstanding, others struggled with communication, strategic direction, and people management. Career growth seemed to depend heavily on organizational politics and alignment with leadership rather than solely on measurable performance.
