Pros

Amazing experience, centered on employee well-being; Good pay and generous benefits. Talented and motivated colleagues.

Cons

Not many cons from a workplace / employer point of view - however the over-reliance on consultants and big-bets mindset can lead to somewhat over ambitious and impractical objectives.
