Pros

Perception of a brilliant culture globally

Cons

The company prioritizes urgent deadlines over sustainable growth, often rehiring previously rejected candidates as a quick fix. This results in a 'plug-and-play' mentality where employees are expected to be instantly productive, completely bypassing the essential onboarding and integration phases

Pros

-Great Healthcare benefits -Great people -Great work/life balance

Cons

-It takes entirely too long to get promoted and there's no real solidified pathway for it. They have a checklist of things you need to be proficient in and you do them, but really you're doing next level work/responsibility at the same pay you've been at for a long time. It's almost like you're being dangled a carrot but the goal post is moving back each time. -Internal processes are slow and organizational changes happen so frequently much its hard to keep up with while the reasoning doesn't always make sense -You'll be moved into a different role, team or manager without any prior discussion
