Pros

Great benefits that do right by their employees.

Good work-life balance, and I rarely ever received any messages outside of work hours.

Cons
  • Incredibly corporate.
  • Very much a "keep your head down and don't ask questions" kind of place. If you question the ethics of the company at all, you will get shot down.
  • The entire job and EOY reviews are centered around ladder-climbing.
  • A very soul-sucking job. It revolves around always gunning for the next promotion, salary increase, and title.
  • Not much of a culture really other than "we're nice", which just really means they are corporate nice. There's so much politics and passive aggressiveness everywhere.
