Pros

Great people and technologies.

Interesting things to work on.

Working remotely is the norm.

Competitive pay.

Decent benefits.

Stable job, even as the markets and work change.

Cons

There are no real clear paths for advancement. HR isn't that good. Low performers and bad managers take a long time to weed out. Performance reviews are really just lip service to career development. Communications from top-down aren't always clear.

Advice to Management

Promote from within rather than bringing talent from without.
