Pros

The technology side of the company is split between product and IT. There are a handful of skilled people scattered in teams throughout. You might get lucky and get to work with one or two. If you are very highly specialized or a junior technical person then this company might be a good fit for you.

Cons

It is a nearly complete seat-of-the-pants technology operation. For every "job well done" there are at least a dozen "look-what-happened". A handful of highly competent individuals are running task to task to keep the lights on. If you thrive in this setting then this may be the place for you. It is a toxic working environment. Most of the leadership are from HP and a large contingent are legacy IT employees. Most stubbornly resist change to current technology and technology management techniques (instead relying on vendor supplied knowledge), few demonstrate relevant knowledge in business, and few are ethical and competent communicators.

Pros

Great colleagues and previously great benefits and remote opportunities. I learned a lot in my role and was able to contribute to the development of my team's processes. A lot of training options including certificate tracks, wellness sessions and financial learning.

Cons

Frequent recurring layoffs, which results in a lot of insecurity and suspicion. Leadership decided to invest in new centers in Atlanta and India, reducing remote options and US-based roles, and offsite gatherings for several hundred employees right before a large, company-wide layoff. Very little opportunity for advancement or promotion.
