Pros

- emphasis on volunteering and inclusion - structured atmosphere - great benefits

Cons

I was hired in a big swoop of people in 2021 just before the company announced it was going remote first. Then nearly as many or more were laid off over the course of my 18 month tenure, including me (rumor has it 200+). It seems like many public companies BB is cutting costs through people rather than processes, and keeping executives on board rather than seasoned employees. Some of the people let go had been there 20-30 years and will undoubtedly be replaced by inferior offshore talent without the domain knowledge necessary to move the business forward. I am not bitter, I have moved on to better things, but interview at your own risk.
