Pros

1. Management considering employee feedback on improving work culture 2. Flexible work hours 3. Research opportunities

Cons

1. More emphasis on presentations than actual data science work 2. Too much workload to handle mundane tasks 3. Work hours extending till 9 pm literally everyday 4. Rewards and recognition needs to be improved 5. Too much process oriented. For any benefit/policy/work lots of process to follow, and company process is not smooth, multiple follow ups needed 6. If you are a versatile data scientist and looking for a change to improve your horizons - you will definitely be disappointed after joining the company. 7. Not an employee friendly company

Pros

I loved my job and my coworkers, and the company's health benefits were outstanding. Leaving wasn't an easy decision, but it was the right one.

Cons

I had a toxic manager who micromanaged everything—checking time reports, tracking lunch breaks, and monitoring every minute away from your desk. They often sent multiple emails to communicate a single point because they struggled to communicate clearly. High-visibility projects were consistently given to favorites, while the rest of the team was overlooked. They were also frequently condescending in team huddles and meetings. Based on my experience, they were never taught how to lead people effectively, and I'm genuinely surprised they're still in a management role.
