Pros

Lots of very good, helpful people to work with. Many people work very hard to do the right thing. For the most part it is very employee friendly and understanding.

Cons

The middle management seems to give lip service to the goals and priorities set by top management. There is a tendency to do a lot of work to make procedures and processes that will improve conditions in some way and then fall back on old ways of doing things when it gets a little difficult to change. It seems like the people that champion change end up on the sidelines. The company went through a large RIF last year. Lost a lot of good talent. Long hours for those left.

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.
