Pros

Family-friendly company. Multi-national autonomy and freedom allows individuals to operate much like a franchise model.

Cons

Little to no active career development of staff (technical training is not career development). Little to no promotion into leadership roles in all functions. Old headquarters in isolated gentrified location.

Pros

Benefits: health coverage, on-site gym, childcare, healthcare center, and more. Work-life balance: predictable hours, flexibility for parents and a culture that doesn't expect you to grind 60-hour weeks.

Cons

Compensation lags the market, slow career advancement and promotions can take years. Change-resistant culture and new ideas move slowly. Leadership team manages up to just one person.
