Pros

Great work culture - flexibility to work from home when you want, lots of fun young people Strong emphasis on data quality and precision

Cons

- Most tech and tools used are from the STONE AGE - it makes it hard to focus on doing your job when 70% of your time has to be dedicated to the minutiae of processes that should have been automated by now - Managers have a "don't ask don't want to know" policy - in many cases they are aware that employees are unhappy and they are not proactive about solving pain points and nipping in the bud, instead they ignore the issue until it gets to a much more serious point than it should
