Pros

Free print products if you pay shipping. Had a high quality team before latest cuts.

Cons

No raises, promotions or bonuses for the last few years. Cuts and downsizing for 4+ quarters in a row. Management focused on selling employees on doing more with less and finding reasons other than compensation to stay. Management often times makes short sighted plans in effort to save money now at the expense of costing 2x or more to fix later. Engineering has been nearly completely moved off shore. Most scrum and project managers actively try to make projects more confusing and take longer by passing bad or outdated information to teams and management.

Pros

I work with diverse and supportive people. Teams and leaders demonstrate the will to respond to worker needs with kindness and respect. On the operational level, teams are highly flexible and adapt quickly to changes when provided proper support. Work-life balance is high priority for the people I interact with.

Cons

The company has difficulty holding on to talent in tech fields since a good chunk of the focus has to be allocated to art/design and production instead. CEOs come and go every few years, leading to instability. For some teams, the process remains overly complex and inefficient because of misalignments between leadership/engineering and ops team users. No formal humanist policy around AI & robotics yet.
