No sense of urgency

Business Outlook

Pros

Some teams are fabulous to work on Some coworkers are fabulous to work with If you like a casual atmosphere and work/life balance, they have it There are some good managers who will make the place bearable. Diversity People do get promoted Benefits are good

Cons

People, in general, don't have a sense of urgency. They feel their module will allow them to put their feet up and relax Feels like they are dying a slow death No one makes decisions. Everyone avoids ownership Silos. Teams role themselves the same utilities for themselves rather than share them Change control (as opposed to safety nets) Organic decisions made in vacuums aren't questioned until it is too late to do anything about them. The pay for SF is abysmal

Pros

Great Benefits package, WFH availability, Coffee/Tea/Espresso/Water/Hot Cocoa provided, Game Room, plenty of events and parties, organizes clubs/communities, good work pacing, friendly working environment, opportunity for advancement/career goals, feels like managers actually care for your well-being.

Cons

Commuting into NYC sucks, all the cons i can think of have to do with the city rather than the business.
