Pros

Flexible hours are taken very seriously, so you can manage your time as you see fit. Nobody cares how or when you work, as long as you respect the deadlines. You can work with cutting edge technology here.

Cons

HR and company culture suggests a very tight-knit community, which basically boils down to the company taking all the benefits of communal life and making you deal with all the downsides. The doublespeak of "this is a community" and "this is a wokplace" is quite revolting. HR will basically never take your side (yeah I learned this at this company, so kudos, I guess) and will use confidential information - shared in confidence - against you. The community is quite schizophrenic, gossip is omnipresent, inclusion and diversity are promoted on a surface level, but homophobia is just right there out in the open. Co-workers and even people in high-leadership openly flaunt their sexual proclivities, sexual harassment occurs quite frequently. When confronted about issues, everybody just tries to play everything off as if it was just a joke. Abuses on a group level against targeted individuals are swept under the carpet. Mobbing and gaslighting are the preferred way of dealing with abused co-workers who have the spine not to back down. They won't fire you, but they will treat you in a way that you'll want to quit on your own. Middle management is extremely self-serving. Communication is either scarce or dishonest. There are mandatory assertive communication trainings, which are totally wasted. Hard work is taken for granted. On the "upside", slacking off is not punished either. Getting promotions and pay raises depends entirely on your ability to flatter the management, which is one of the reasons that I decided to leave. There never really was a salary negotiation, they basically denied any and all my requests for increased pay, citing the "current economic situation" as an excuse. It was also suggested that I should be ashamed of my request of increased pay, which is ridicolous, given how little money I made already.
