Pros

Flexible with meeting employees' needs in a hybrid work environment.

Each organization seems to genuinely care about diversity and inclusion.

New perks added regularly for employees, world-class benefits.

Cons

Compensation is significantly behind competitors, despite recent company-wide increases to merit and stock.

Experience is still largely team-dependent; some teams are actively connected while others are less in sync.

Hiring can be convoluted, with uncertain timelines and staffing needs.

Advice to Management

Focus more on diversity when building teams, rather than building teams that look similar to their upper management.
