Good spot to settle (but hectic)

Pros

the benefits are good, salary isnt bad either. A lot of great colleagues and many opportunities to advance for those willing to put in the extra work. above average company culture. Reimbursements are easy/quick, computers given are good and have access to many tools/platforms.

Cons

top heavy.... people like to stick around because its a great place to, there are still opportunities but there is a lag and many of the higher-level folks are older with an antiquated approach to using technology and approaching issues differently. HR is also pretty slow with certain things. depending on the department, you'll wear a lot of hats (this is sometimes a pro but also often a con)
