Pros

Good benefits. That's about it.

Cons

High turnover internally due to being treated poorly by leadership, extremely poor leadership and stark gap between leadership and people working on the ground floor. No training for new-hires regardless of position (revolving door), and unattainable metrics. This company values metrics/numbers above quality. Mass layoffs are common as well when they restructure every 5-10 months. Extremely unstable working environment with a LOT of pressure.
