Pros

Let you work remote trust you to get your work done, no micromanaging great coworkers interesting work

Cons

ridiculous policies for performance reviews(pbcs). Perfectly good people get low reviews and great people get passed over for top ratings because they follow an algorithm instead of honestly rating work Top execs do not value their employees very little training/investment in employees changed the 401K match to yearly matching so they can freely lay off people and save $$ Do not allow much transfer between departments
