Pros

They pay well for top credentials, experience and education. You will be indoctrinated to the corporate culture of Market-Based Management or MBM, which is extremely successful. If you have an interview, do yourself a favor and either read the book, "The Science of Success" by Charles Koch, or at a minimum, Google Market-Based Management and be familiar with the 10 guiding principles. You are given a fair amount of creative latitude to do your job. The company is very profitable and well funded and they value good ideas. Lastly, you will meet many hard working, very smart people.

Cons

Results are valued more than people. Many talented and smart people were forced to leave the company for reasons that never made sense to many. Develop a backup plan to working there because any day could be your last.

Pros

Autonomy Remote work opportunities Decent Pay - only if you negotiate it

Cons

Zero training Poor leadership Lack of recognition Constant focus on “closing gaps” - you’ll spend all your time talking about less than 2% of revenue/profit Inconsistent bonus payouts with no metrics to understand how they arrive at a figure No clarity on how to achieve pay increases. Constant responsibilities added to your role that were not previously part of the role you were hired for.
