Pros

- Excellent benefits - Competitive salary - Nice people - Unlimited PTO - Fun company events

Cons

- Too few women in upper management - A lot of process red tape. Projects move at a snail’s pace, and it takes FOREVER to accomplish anything if any other person outside of your immediate team is needed - A lot of workplace politics to learn and navigate as a new hire - Employee recognition is lacking
