Pros

They have okay benefits and education budgets. Some of the people are good and are trying to make change.

Cons

They have no culture and everyone works silos and doesn't talk to each other, which leads to ineffective processes, increased risk, and confusion. They think forcing people into the office will help this but no one there knows each other or talks. There is no emphasis or attention paid to building culture remotely either, despite claims of being hybrid. It's a LOT of politics and everyone just jumps when the CEO says jump (even when the decision is clearly the wrong decision). People have very little authority to execute decisions and a lot of work is micromanaged which makes work very unfulfilling. There is very little trust at the senior executive level. Turnover is high and everyone I talk too is looking for other work. Glad I got out when I did.
