Pros

Compensation and benefits are great. Casual work environment, but can get too casual at times. Worked with latest technologies, great learning environment. Some extremely talented individuals.

Cons

Huge re-org process underway after distribution split. Responsibilities and scope of work changed after 2nd year; then my title was changed. Not same job I was hired to do; have no idea what my actual job will look like in 6 months. "Working" managers great at technology, bad people/team management skills. Constant acquisitions makes fractured, piecemeal infrastructure with no consistency very difficult to support. IT policies set on paper not practiced; no cohesion between departments or regions. VERY lax and reactive attitude in IT silo.

Pros

Very laid back culture and opportunities are available for growth.

Cons

There is no strategic plan being followed. Managers have been in their positions for years and are basically collecting a check.
