Pros

Awesome, intelligent co-workers, frequent free food, overall pleasant atmosphere and work/life balance

Cons

Hard to advance career and management is a total fiasco, not a lot of job security due to lots of "restructuring" AKA huge layoffs (I believe 10% of the company was cut in early 2017 and another 5-ish% was cut at the end of 2017....), not a very high retention rate for people in my field at the company, I believe close to 85% of my team bailed within my first three months due to absolutely horrid new management that was brought on

Pros

- Great culture. Most people I worked with were smart, kind and loved what they did - Solid compensation and benefits - For the most part, interesting and challenging work - Constant effort to improve though yearly survey and employee comittees

Cons

- Massive layoff every 2 years. Sometimes valuable team members would be cut with no explanation - Sometimes, there is too much focus on consensus. Decisions can take a long time to be made
