Pros

Good groups of people to work with. Most people were are trying to do the right thing. Decent work life balance.

Cons

Every group in the company is very bureaucratic. It takes a very long time to get any substantive change accomplished, as multiple layers need to review and approve things before they are implemented.

Pros

Smaller feel, good for prioritizing family and life outside of work. Not too competitive between co-workers. Great collaborative culture.

Cons

On the smaller side means less opportunities and more waiting for roles to open up and advance. I saw a lot of people leave for better opportunities.

12-hour swing shift leads to abysmal work/life balance.
