Pros

There is true diversity here. In every level from entry to c-suite there are people of every color, culture, and ability. There is also a huge emphasis on being promoted and your managers will work hard to get you moved on if you’re hungry enough.

Cons

Not always very human centric. The KPIs in my specific team when switched to quarterly didn’t make sense and the stress of not hitting your weekly goals has caused a lot of health and distress on a lot of people in the company. Like all companies there are a lot of politics, but overall probably one of the best corporate companies I’ve worked at, personally. Pay could be way better. Base and comp are pretty low for a tech company and for the amount of work that we do
