Pros

Had a great team of co-workers that supported each other. Good benefits. In IT so I am able to tele-commute. Global teams. My manager looks at for our team.

Cons

Most employees have bookmarked web sites to track layoff rumors to keep upto date on pending cuts. TOO MANY good people have been laid off this year. The ones left are over worked. No raise in 5 years. Cuts made from senior management level with no input from managers. This left huge gaps to be filled by the people left behind. Moving all IT support to APAC teams.

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.
