Pros

Benefits, very good 401K where they match 50%. ESPP, bonuses (when you get them) and great people

Cons

Constant change, some change is needed but there is too much there. Poor leadership being hired in that don't know what they are doing. Lots of really bad decisions being made overall. Very little work/life balance, if you are looking for a job you get to come home to your family and spend time this probably isn't the place you want to work. You will have to work all kinds of hours and have meetings early and late. You most likely will be taking over a job that 3 or 4 people use to do and expected to figure out how to do it by yourself. Keep in mind if you don't work those hours or take on all that work, you will most likely be on the next restructuring plan (hint laid off).

Pros

Great technology for the era of AI. Stock is doing well.

Cons

High performers have been laid off based on market/biz unit goals. Outsourcing/derisking is a thing lately.

Pros

Fast paced workplace. Lots of data to master SQL and data analysis

Cons

Toxic AF. Everybody seems to lower to 60% effort because the risk of getting tired is immense. If you give 100% and have to take a break and someone sees, the big boss will yell with a grumpy neurotic southern old man voice. Trust me, it is very unpleasant. If you are male, don't get hopes up for a promotion if there are any eligible girls. If it isn't done on purpose, then the general culture of cattiness and gossip will accomplish it anyway.
