Pros

Great salary , bonus and RSUs

Cons

Management still thinks of products as projects and doesn't fund appropriately. Some areas are ahead in tech, some areas aren't. Too many ex-Accenture VPs and up. Hard to promote junior employees, yet VPs/ SVPs promoted frequently. DO BOTH. Weird communication across pyramids.
