      Pros

      - Good work life balance in some teams - Great people in some teams

      Cons

      - Company has no future vision / plan. It's running around like a headless chicken. - Cross-team coordination is a painful process. If you are dependent on another team for your work, good luck getting unblocked. - Politics everywhere. Everything is a facade just for show. - Lower comp than competitors doesn't retain great talent. - Boring financial product - Painful and unclear review / promotion process

      Pros

      People appear to be nice, good benefits, and appearance of nice/collaborative culture.

      Cons

      Employees - especially those who have been there for years are very territorial for work. The company is highly siloed, people do not collaborate in a positive manner but a very fake manner with alternative agendas. Too many meetings with no agendas.
