Pros

The compensation can be good. 2 weeks paid maternity/paternity leave.

Cons

Horrible workplace culture. Success is punished while mediocrity is rewarded. There is a complete disconnect between market conditions and corporate expectations. Turnover is rampant, close to 50% in sales. Unreliable digital products which are short sighted, and are killed as quickly as they are rolled out. Antiquated compensation structure.
