Pros

Good Pay (probably slightly above market), Good benefits, co-workers are usually pretty cool, management is pretty good for the most part.

Cons

Really hard to move around within the company, moving up in the company is more based on who you know than what you know.

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.
