Pros

Good benefits, resources for learning about different topics and great brand equity which is good for your resume

Cons

Lots of emails, meetings, LinkedIn posts and announcements on caring about diversification and women however just 1% of the executives walk the talk. Many initiatives to close the gender gap at executive levels and diversity gap across the board but it’s all an approach and conversations. No real data or metrics of employees who have been promoted to VP, SVP levels. There are clear biases across the board where managers continue to hire more of the same and aren’t bold enough to fight for the equal salaries of their employees. This is rampant on the global level where you have 70% Bob and 30% Lisa. It’s even worse in the LAC region where HR is indifferent and turn a blind eye to bad behavior (that has been reported by many) and continue to employ lackluster management that are not good people managers. “Inclusion, diversity, gender balance is top of mind for us”, sure on a PowerPoint presentation but no data showing the effect of these initiatives within the organization.

Pros

Good corporate vision, strategy, and business model in the upper management Great colleagues to work with Fair benefits Support woman in IT & Leadership 5 volunteer days per year ( Even though some of the middle management judge for spending time on that )

Cons

Pretty late in the market to introduce any customer based product Lot of referred/recommended people come from former employer of EVP/SVP/VP and they take over the management role. Promotion in the tech division seems impossible for many employees when their counter part in product or marketing easily get it done.
