Driven People, Supportive Culture, Bold Mission

Pros

1. The people: best part about GD, whole team wants peers to succeed, and everyone (even people on different teams) goes out of their way to support each other. people are goofy, hard working, and understanding 2. The culture: supportive candidness is highly, highly valued. teammates give descriptive criticism AND praise so you can usually tell if you're aiming in the right direction. communication is never accusatory, always productive

Cons

1. Interviewing: didn't always know where I stood (i.e how many rounds remained, who I'd speak with, when I'd hear back from last interview)
