Lots of great people are there. They have great benefits that help you feel well taken care of. They are also in a great location.

Very splintered development organization. A lack of standards really hurts the effectiveness of individuals, teams, and departments.

Great company culture, supportive team, smooth onboarding process, strong career stability, and meaningful work. My interview experience was very positive, and the recruiting and onboarding teams were helpful, responsive, and professional throughout the process.

Cons

There is always a learning curve when joining a new company, especially while understanding internal systems and processes, but the team has been very supportive.
