Pros

Good compensation and benefits, some amazing people to work with, some horrible ones as well. They will give you every tool you need to succeed and excel in your position...

Cons

Two rounds (or more) of RIFs every year. The entire RIF list contains nothing but folks over 40. They are screaming for an age discrimination law suit like the one they paid out in 2011... Seems they never learn

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.
