Pros

Great benefits, amazing office space, salary is fair

Cons

Force feed AI, large management chains create bureaucracy, lay offs every spring so C suite can get big bonuses. You have unlimited PTO but good luck using it, the only people that advance play politics and don’t actually know what they’re doing. Hard work and expertise is rewarded with minimal bonuses and absorbing more work from laid off peers. Leaving was the best decision I’ve made in years.
