Pros

Smart people, good growth opportunities and good benefits and salary compared to the market. Also, much of the career progression depends on the individual's own initiative. Purely technically its a great place to work.

Cons

Some things not 100% transparent - for instance ranking CEP, IPFs and competencies. Also, though open resourcing is a great idea, its not fully transparent - many things happen behind the curtain - many jobs made directly and going around MOR/OR

Pros

There are many diverse roles and opportunities within the company, which can make it easier to explore different career paths and avoid feeling stuck or bored.

Cons

Company lacks clear direction and has significant internal disorganization. Employees are often expected to take on multiple roles without appropriate compensation or support. Despite consistently being a high performer, I left feeling undervalued — after covering two roles, there wasn’t even a simple thank you upon departure. To make matters worse, eight months after leaving, they are now claiming I owe over $5,000 in PTO that had previously been considered settled at the time of my exit. Overall, the experience left a very negative impression and highlighted serious internal process issues.
