Pros

Insurance, stock, base, diversity, discounts, smart coworkers

Cons

Extremely unsupportive of parents during Covid. Disconnected culture. Cut throat management style, and metrics. Goals are not aligned to the actual market, and OTE during hiring process, is much different than the real world .

Pretty bad

Pros

Relatively good benefits compared to an average non-tech company

Cons

Higher management is doing a terrible job. Things are always running in an urgency mode. There was a data breach, then hold a 3 day security training, there are incidents, schedule meetings. Discrimination issues? schedule a meeting and be done with it. No real long term planning. Morale is low. Some teams are working 80 hour weeks and some teams work 1 hour weeks.
