Pros

There are many good hardworking people who want to do the right thing

Cons

The company touts a great culture but this was only true a long time ago. There are many leaders in the organization that are not leading the organization in a way to make it successful. They are more worried about their careers than the organization and the people who work there.

It's Changed

Pros

Pockets of good culture. Pay transparency improved. Increased size of company feels more secure.

Cons

Culture has devolved. Reactionary; non-stop fire drills. Decreased benefits/perks. Constant pivoting on what is important and then gaslighting on changes.
