Pros

Excellent stock and ESPP, relaxed working environment that's very flexible

Cons

My final pay is not accurate and is missing compensation for time off that I didn't take. Have emailed HR multiple times and got ghosted as soon as I returned the company laptop! It's not a tech company and they're not looking for tech improvements. Team felt demotivated and even though we were constantly asked for feedback there was a strong hush hush culture. Every time something was brought up we were shut down straightaway.

Pros

Some of the company's values still have a positive impact on day to day experience, many teams still have a good culture and supportive management

Cons

Mid and low level management aren't required to follow company culture, can create toxic and unhealthy environments with no repercussions. No two teams will operate the same way There is significant change across the company, and it's relying on the image of it's old culture which is no longer being actively supported
