Pros

I can't speak for all departments, but the one I work in is fantastic. Compensation highly competitive. Talent and hard work are recognized and rewarded. Excellent health insurance and other benefits are solid. Company-wide, diversity and inclusion are very important and it's not just talk. There is a lot of opportunity for development and face time with execs. While we have busy times, we have a lot of flexibility and autonomy and I never feel micro managed. Huge growth in the last few years and management has a plan for future growth.

Cons

Long hours at times, but generally manageable. Not a fan of the forced distribution rankings rolled out last year.
