Pros

People First culture at a high level

Cons

This company drives to attract top talent, and has no plan for when they get it. Speaking only from my experience - and it really depends on your leader - if you're transparent with a toxic leader that you'd like to explore opportunities in other areas of the business you can expect all investment in your career growth and development to stop and to get prevented. It's also apparently acceptable for female leaders to get a pass for toxic behaviors that would get a male leader fired. From my experience, absolutely not a world's most ethical company. This is a great company to work for IF you're accepting a job you want to work for the rest of your life. Know you have 0 career growth and development and any hope of improvement may and can get squashed by toxic leadership. Merit increases equate to participation trophies, and you're worked like dogs if a second fulltime job gets added as a business goal.
