Pros

401k, Bonus, nice people to work alongside

Cons

Executive leadership is old white male and you have to fit this bill if you want to advance. Your ideas will be used and will be transformative in the organization but your manager will receive credit for it. No need to escalate to HR, they won’t do anything for you. You’ll have a target on your back. No growth for minorities, you will work hard and will not receive equitable pay increases or promotions.
