Pros

Good Benefits Hybrid work option (dependent upon leader) Almost bullet proof business model

Cons

Horrible culture with very passive aggressive, unprofessional behaviors. Favoritism. Everything is "Priceless" but no customer knows what it means. Marketing makes investments it can't afford so then needs to "sell" them to customers. There are no budgets that would be considered sustainable at normal companies. Constant reorgs and layoffs and then you learn the company acquires a new cybersecurity or AI company. It's constant people pruning. Management is very poor and ego driven. Product launches so called products that don't work so they have to get partners, do perpetual pilots and then buy the company. Meantime Fintechs are laughing. If credit cards ever go away, lord help us. Not a diverse culture at all unless you're Indian. Sorry, it's true.
