Pros

Plenty of parking (except when trainings are going on) Decent restaurants nearby for lunch some really smart people work here

Cons

* Hard to move the needle and get work done without the tools in place to do a job * disorganized leadership and unclear direction/KPIs/expectations * very little diversity across leadership and none in the C-suite/boardroom * a culture of "extreme ownership" with no clarity on what you own * unequal compensation scales * back and forth on guidance about onsite/hybrid/remote - some people seem to get it and others get reprimanded * really, isn't the term "tribe" a bit troublesome? ". ‘Tribe’ can be offensive to many people due to the violence, colonialism and history associated with its meaning. It’s a word that has been used to marginalize indigenous communities, failing to recognize their history and their oppression. " * people are constantly in CYA mode versus growth and trial mode. * I honestly couldn't trust anyone to have my back or not throw me under the bus, in fact, I'm still reflecting on the tire tracks from how many times I was thrown under the bus.

Pros

Don’t have to generate your own leads.

Cons

They do not pay you properly. So many mistakes on payroll and they never can get it right. I am talking about tens of thousands of dollars in errors annually.
