Pros

A lot of great people to learn from, easy to move up.

Cons

Unstable, often laying off the youngest talent sometimes months off promotions or hirings. Some leadership is fantastic but they are often outranked by people with questionable and constantly changing vision.

Pros

Used to be a wonderful place to work before being bought out.

Cons

There is no feeling of teamwork anymore. Management could be quite nasty and favoritism ran high. New manager seemed to like running things like it was a third world country.
