Pros

Quite mature UX, and work is fairly pieced out, so you don't have to do a lot of extra work. Good culture. Mature organization.

Cons

Hugely underpaid for tech, especially for women/POCs. Management, especially in R&D is a mess. Work is really slow, and my manager specifically was terrible. A few developers who've been there 10+ years run the show, and they let their own ego rule, instead of good decision-making. Management does nothing to curb these developers.

Benefits, passionate workforce, good direct management

Cons

There’s often unclear paths to execute on strategy. Pie in the sky ideas stay as ideas until there’s a leadership change.
