Pros

Free food on Fridays is nice

Cons

Leadership consists of all white males that go to the same church. CEO specifically lacks business knowledge and brags about not having a college education. The entire company claims that they're "data scientists" and "economists" when in fact there are only a handful of formally trained individuals - the people who make the false claims that they have actual experience all go to the same church as leadership and have liberal arts degrees from a religious school that filters into that church. I'll never forget when the CEO announced at the annual conference that he is "an economist" and then failed to explain a simple economic principle in front of the entire conference audience.
