Pros

Fantastic benefits and great work-life balance. Beautiful campus with access to a healthcare facility, gym, day care, dry cleaning, hair salon/barber and great food.

Cons

No transparency with promotions. There's often no clear path for upward mobility. Very little diversity in every level of management, but most apparent in the higher levels. It would be great to see more external highers from different industries for VP level positions.

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.
