Pros

Quality people in the rank-n-file level positions. Good name recognition, resume builder, stepping stone. Global reach.

Cons

Where to start? The company is in freefall, big layoffs coming within weeks -- they will probably time it just ahead of next earnings call. The CEO is problematic, for reasons others have mentioned. Take a look at all of her VP level hires, how have they panned out? What is the common thread among them (besides no industry knowledge and command of buzz words)? If you look at that (upper management) you start to understand why this once great company is in decline, why some on here are pandering publicly about how great it is because they are afraid they will get laid off soon and why the morale and productivity at IGT is at an all time low.

Pros

Flexible with hybrid work options however the degree of flexibility is highly dependent on your team/manager. The work is interesting.

Cons

The ability to move up depends a lot on your manager and relationships with others, not necessarily strictly your work product.
