Pros

The only nice thing about this company is the people on the HR team are nice and helpful.

Cons

You are on a team but there is no teamwork, you work in silo on single problem that management most likely doesn't care about or understand. If you need to deploy anything outside of your team it will take months. If you are not part of the people that have been there more than 3 years don't even bother pitching an idea. They say that they are adapting with the changes in AI, that is a lie, only a handful of people even understand machine learning.
