Pros

For the most part, you work within an ecosystem of talent who truly do care about you, support you, and help you achieve your goals.

Cons

The executive team is incredibly top down. I don't get the sense that they value or care about bottom's up feedback from frontline employees. Particularly, around what our customers are telling us
