Pros

Decent compensation. Bonus is good compraring to other companies in the area. Young people have opportunities to try challenging projects

Cons

No work life balance. Conference calls almost every evening on weekdays. Too many layers of management, some senior managers don't even have any direct report Ambiguous company culture, if there is any culture after all. There are way to many executives. Several hundreds of them. People who do real works - engineers for example got laid off all the time.

Pros

Absolutely love my team, people, culture, and work events. Genuinely I can't think of any cons. 3 days in-person, 2 days remote. Best work life balance ever, and great pay. Even intern benefits are amazing

Cons

None that I can think of
