Pros

Great culture and environment. I have worked for several companies and this is the best company I have worked for. The people are great,, interesting work, plenty of opportunities for personal development and generally good work life balance.

Cons

Some of the senior leadership at the market level are disappointing, they need to do better at hiring the right leaders that know how to unleash potential, engage and excite their people. On another note, AZ says you can work from home, but there isnt really a culture for it and you'll be questioned left, right and center and made to feel distrusted even if you ask (no reason not to trust until you havent delivered I say...).
