Pros

There are no pros here.

Cons

Tons of politics and favoritism. People are promoted to leadership positions because they are close to the CEOs or they have been at Panda for a long time. This company does not value performance and intelligence. There are a lot of incompetent people in HR who are overtitled. They waste the company's money and then try to hide it from the founders. And when you bring up issues to the HR department, good luck seeing any change. They also work to protect the favoritism and nepotism in the company. There's a complete disregard for decency and respect. Bullying and harassment are not addressed and questions around unlawful/unethical practices are ignored. People do not leave the company because the bonuses and stock options pay out well. If you want a lot of money and have a high tolerance for incompetency, politics, amorality and toxicity, then this is the company for you.
