Pros

Benefits including wellness fund, professional fund, tuition reimbursement, wfh expenses, remote work flexibility, transportation cost reimbursement

Cons

Diversity and Inclusion is a big deal and efforts to amplify that are better than the majority of large organizations, but efforts to actually hire people of color seem to be minimal. Moving to the proper pay band once within the company can be difficult
