Pros
Nice benefits like medical, dental, 401(k), and unlimited PTO. However, depending on your supervisor, you can be coerced into not getting your time off approved. Good people and hidden gems in the organization.
Cons
SO MANY. Stand Together is all talk and no action. They will say one thing and then never do it. For instance, they'll say that they value their employees, yet they only care about what value you can create for them and the organization, not you as an individual. There are office politics and favoritism and everyone in my department is severely underpaid by at least 20-30%. You'll talk with your boss about issues like these and they will dance around the question and will ask you to "prove" your worth. Except... there isn't an accurate scale to measure yourself against. Everything is arbitrary and your worth is based only on someone's opinion if you are providing value or not. There is no clear way to measure anything. So while my department is severely underpaid and get nothing, other departments get bonuses at Christmas, more competitive pay, and are praised by leadership and feel appreciated and that their contributions are valued. There is favoritism and office politics and a backwards and hypocritical culture here. If you don't drink the Kool-aid, you'll not be seen as a good employee. This place doesn't work like the rest of the world, and they are forcing everyone to come back into the office, even during the Pandemic. Also there are no opportunities for growth here. People have been at my position for 5+ years with no chances for advancements. No emphasis on D&I.
