Pros

absolutely none - avoid at all costs

Cons

They need to care about their employees more, not just force them into teams that are disorganized and have no structure. There's never any audit or accountability. It's also shocking how dated the internal systems are - modernization is desperately needed. Managers are cold, lack empathy, and really only care about metrics.

meaningless hard work

Pros

Hardworking teams with some good processes in place. Like the Bar Raiser program and Tech communities.

Cons

Everybody is scrambling around grasping on to work tasks. Company is growing, promotions are quarterly. People are looking for stuff to add to their promo docs. The one's who are not chasing promotions are worried that they may be ranked at the bottom, so they are chasing work and brown nosing desperately

Pros

Upside if the stock ever does well. There are (very limited) opportunities for doing new and big things - if you can deal with the massive hierarchical structure.

Cons

All about the numbers, everything else is a scam. Bosses only care about moving up, workers left to do their jobs - without gratitude of any sort. You can do better.
