Pros

Good benefits and it's nice to have been able to work remotely

Cons

There are so many - leadership is really disjointed and it makes VPs and Directors afraid to make decisions. Management likes to point the finger down the chain to those who have little visibility into larger initiatives and somehow get away with it. They are also really afraid to fire anyone who really needed to be let go until the went wild with the layoffs at the end of 2023. At that point, it seemed like some of the best workers I knew were let go, and some of the worst people got to stick around. It was all very confusing to witness.
