Pros

People are generally very personable, approachable, etc.

Cons

Despite its best efforts to incorporate some of the valley into its DNA, this is NOT a silicon valley company. Highly bureaucratic, people get placed in roles based on who they know as opposed to ability, dozens of Swedes have taken temporary assignments in key positions (so much for incorporating silicon valley ways of working), nobody is willing to take risks for fear of retribution if things don't go as planned, etc.

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
