Pros

Lots of paid days off. Flexible, no micro management depending on the department you work in. Casual dress on Fridays if you do not work in Home Office.

Cons

Employees were advised that everything was going ok with jobs but the next week unknown to everyone many were laid off. No warning at all. It also seemed that there was favoritism given to certain people doing the exact job as everyone else. Even when others did perform (numbers to back them up) better than the "favorite", the recognition was given to the "favorite" people. Recognition was always given to the same people.

Pros

Great benefits, amazing PTO starting off, company promotes inclusivity and promotion from within.

Cons

The leadership structure seems too complicated. Soooo many team leads. Certain lines of business do not have options for switching teams if you do not get along with your manager.
