Pros

Best company I’ve worked at in terms of balance and values. The most fluidity in lateral and upward mobility across functions I’ve ever seen in a company. They value smart people and understand most people can learn most functions with a good mentor.

Cons

Very siloed in a lot of ways. There’s a need for more communication between divisions to mitigate duplicating effort on the same work.
