Pros

They pay pretty well, especially if you are a lateral hire and can negotiate your offer well. Work-life balance is better than average.

Cons

You need to leave independent thinking at home, else you are doomed - you either align or you get out! Losing market share rapidly, while the management fiddles, and continues to be smug. Used to have great ethical standards, but not any more. Leaders and their families enjoy at company expense.

Pros

You are paid better than most other in the industry

Cons

Leadership high ups have no idea how to run a company ESPECIALLY the CEO. At this point I’m convinced it’s self sabotage because they actively choose to make the worst decisions quarter after quarter, FY after FY. They’ll also make sure you know how replaceable you are come March/April every year without hesitation no matter how well you perform.
