Pros

Exposed to great ideas and talent. The company is open to innovation and working hard to grow and lead the industry. Exciting time across all divisions. Love the diversity of the business, and that building!

Cons

Layers of bureaucracy can lead to slower-than-desired change and too many cooks in the kitchen. Some big, fragile egos in key roles. Average employees often need to rely on industry news for company updates.
