Pros

Without badmouthing anyone, I walked into a situation that was very different from my last job. By this point in my tenure it has become clear that there will never be a shortage of opportunity here as long as I maintain a good attitude and continue to keep my skills up to date, and so far my ideas/contributions have actually been taken seriously. I could not be happier.

Cons

Some red tape that is typical of a large parent company, but it's definitely not as bad as it could be. I've been here less than a year, but I have not seen much else as far as cons go.

Pros

Decent benefits Hybrid WFH schedule Some really great direct managers

Cons

Chaotic and disorganized, with old outdated backend systems. Work performance and output not generally recognized: people who do very little work are often paid the same, or more than people who do double or triple the workload, and are allowed to continue with the company while other shoulder the load. Once you are on a team or part of a BU - good luck making a move to another team or BU. The place is a revolving door for a lot of positions, but once you learn a skillset they are unlikely to allow a move. The sales team runs this place, so be prepared to be bullied constantly by them, even when you are told to gatekeep.
