      Can't get out of their own way

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good benefits and work/life balance

      Cons

      Highly political organization. Lots of dead weight. Senior Digital Leadership is incompetent and completely over their heads. They simply cannot move fast enough and do not have the desire to invest at levels needed to effectively compete.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Amazing culture, extremely flexible company, respects your life outside of work, cares about you as a whole person and not just as an employee, a lot of social opportunities outside of work, get to work with engaged, smart, ambitious people, they just implemented an UNLIMITED vacation policy

      Cons

      Really hard to get promoted, company is doing poorly, a lot of bureaucracy, very resistant to change as a company, salary is much lower than competitors (like IR), senior leaders are not doing their job, many people are being cut
