Pros

Challenging work Strong Upper Management Values Employees as People Strong line between work and personal life. Great Benefits Good perks such as workout center, full-cafeteria, clean and well-maintained work facilities. Semi-Flexible work hours

Cons

Your experience may vary depending on your manager. In general the middle-managers are quite good, but there are always exceptions to that. I've been at other companies where incompetent managers were somewhat of a norm. Not here. You may or may not like them, but they are usually effective. The collaboration between groups is minimal at best, and for some reason the culture does nothing to try and change that, but reinforces it.

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.
