Pros

Great benefits and compensation, a relaxed hybrid work environment, and smart co-workers.

Cons

It's stressful and difficult to get work done because of so many competing teams and systems. Some people have a bad habit of praising you to your face and complaining behind your back.

Advice to Management

Stop saying you have a blameless culture. Stop saying people can take vacation any time they want. There's no way to take time off and still complete projects on time.
