Pros

The company name on your resume

Cons

* Flagrant discrimination. * Major lack of diversity. * Favoritism. * People of color are first in line to be fired/laid off. * Voicing your concerns will cost you your job and HR won't do a single thing. * HR preaches that they take discrimination "Very seriously" but that's a HUGE lie! They will claim to investigate your complaint but you will lose your job and they'll keep the offender. P.S: Watch how they will try to come reply my feedback with something along the line of: " We take feedback very seriously..." blah blah blah. Or "We need people from all backgrounds to join..." blah blah blah. All lies! I have witnessed some really unbelievable things while working there and I can guarantee you that HR do not care one bit about any discrimination
