Pros

Most coworkers are polite and caring Work is generally interesting Good benefits

Cons

-Management and directors host “inclusion”panels and create intellectual capital that denigrate and reduce people to their skin color and/or gender while telling you they are inclusive. -Management encouraged people in team leadership positions to take race, sex, etc into account in forming their teams and assigning work. -The newly retired CEO tried selling the company which my understanding it was halted do to antitrust concerns. C-suite kept saying the usual “synergies” and other typical corporate speak but public filings show the C-suite was set up for multimillion dollar payouts with a change in control (which I assume the transaction would have triggered). Maybe it was legitimate but seemed fishy. -New CEO and leadership continuing and increasing ridiculous partnerships and programs wasting corporate time and money and putting colleagues who don’t want a politicized work environment in a hard spot.

Pros

Paycheck is great, people to work with are generally very intelligent, positive and professional. Many positions are work from home or at least hybrid. Continuous learning is encouraged. Since the company is technically British, it is very inclusive and has several networks to ensure inclusion (although some such as the menopause support group are UK based which isn't surprising as the US doesn't typically care about such things though they should).

Cons

The workload is often insane to put it mildly. You are expected to sort of "do everything". When you are encouraged to speak up if you have too much work, they pretty much tell you "well you just have to figure out how to get it done because we have to give you more work". There is blatant favoritism. Those who are liked are praised for giving detailed answers on calls and granted a month off of PTO while those not as well liked get grilled when they ask for one day off and are told "not to overthink" when they try to provide detailed answers.
