Pros

* Great work life balance * You get to pick what you work on in most cases

Cons

* Was sexually harassed and they made me work with the person after filing a complaint * Super disorganized org, constantly reorganizing causing teams to be split up and people moved around every year or so * Lots of big company bureaucracy to get simple things like a laptop and permissions to code on them

Pros

-It's a job that is available in most locations.

Cons

-The company, on a corporate level, doesn't seem to grasp the value of the talent they have. - Close ties with Citibank subvert the importance of product knowledge, customer service, and revenue for credit card sales. - Daily Performance check-ins are overbearing and myopic. - Tends to burnout motivated employees with false carrots and hollow promises. - Pay's terrible, and rides the line of predatory at times.
