Pros: Comp, benefits, and remote work
Cons: Aweful politics, low empathy, and it's all about optics for the upper management. They will not hesitate to throw you under the bus to cover their own faults.
There are a few tenured folks at this company who ruin the experience for everyone with their dirty politics. For some of these folks, it's their first job out of college, and they think they are the sh*t.
