Pros

I liked a lot of my colleagues and there were some fun activities available for the staff.

Cons

A bafflingly badly run place. Managers are rude, entitled, scapegoat their summer staff and there is clearly a bullying issue. So much free overtime demanded from you, I felt totally misled by the interview.

Pros

You can make a real impact in a non-tech industry and also make good (not amazing) comp

Cons

Sometimes under resourced, people who have high capacity do the best here, comp has a lower ceiling than other industries
