Pros

A lot of training videos, a lot of good ideas, quite stable. Less layoff news compared to a major competitor. Good 401K match.

Cons

Lack of engineering focus; there are more queens than working bees. Heavy-weighted processes, poor strategy execution, lot of bureaucracy, low social capital making it hard to retain young, energetic employees.
