Pros

Exceptional benefits and retirement savings plans; money to be had; strong company; competitive ESPP; decent number of company holidays and time off.

Cons

Middle Management is out of touch with their staff and has too many unrealistic goals. Management routinely employs a "do as I say not as I do attitude" and their leadership style has too many double standards (WFH, vacation black outs, etc.). Some people are in leadership positions who have no idea how to lead. Frequent infringement on your work/life balance. Not much room to grow unless you are in the right network

Pros

Business side is smart and is superb at their product

Cons

The IT organization struggles with structural challenges that impact efficiency. The offshore-heavy model in India means US-based employees regularly work early hours to stay aligned, which is unsustainable long-term. The workforce is heavily weighted toward a high-headcount service model rather than investing in strong engineering talent — you need fewer, better engineers, not more bodies. Central tech functions are attempting to build platforms, but without a clear shared understanding of what a platform actually means, these initiatives remain incomplete. The result is heavy manual workarounds propping up half-finished solutions. Strategic direction shifts frequently, and ongoing layoff announcements make it difficult to plan or build momentum.
