Pros

Work from home is available for some roles.

Cons

There's a move by some management to have employees back in the office, which doesn't make much sense when our teams are spread across time zones. I used to commute to an office where none of my team members were in the same state--it was a waste of money and time. I hope the company doesn't return to that model. There is also little to no growth opportunity. Even when you're seeking it, the company is so large, and employee mentoring and end-to-end business exposure is so incredibly limited that it makes moving very difficult.

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
