Pros

Flexibility and it's not hard to look like a superstar if you just work a little hard because others around you show low productivity or no sense of urgency.

Cons

Diversity. If you are a person of color you are still treated as a supporting role even with more accomplishments and degrees because you are in not in "the club." You will be talked down to, not trusted, and put on secondary projects in middle manager roles-Giving little to no hope career progression is an option. The 50% female C-Suite is the biggest accomplishment in the past few years - but even that lacks it's diversity.

Pros

- Mission - Work life balance - Pay - Modernization of the workplace

Cons

- Every year benefits are reduced with terrible and tone deaf justifications. - Added benefits tend only to benefit new employees. - Perception that the company does not value long term employees (suspension of defined benefit program) - Poor ESPP discount - Lack of transparency on how AEIP bonus is calculated - Workflow tools are still extremely cumbersome after years of promises to fix them - Lack of enforcement of hybrid work policy. Many people never come in and are never spoken to about it.
