      Pros

      the company has great pay and benefits; rotational program allows you learn a lot

      Cons

      the culture is very toxic. people are nice to your face but will go to HR over the smallest thing. HR is very involved with any and all gossip in the departments they serve. You can't trust your mentors because personal conversations between you and your mentor will be publicized when deciding what goes in your review. The turnover is super high. Very talented people are hired from Ivy leagues and other prestigious universities, but only 1-2 people survive more than 3 years. The company pretends to care about diversity but somehow all people of color hired into management are fired within 1-2 years. I wouldn't say anyone is overtly racist but the racial bias is ingrained in everyone in leadership. It's rare to see people of color make it into senior leadership... super rare.
