Pros

Great pay and benefits, they set standards around ensuring diversity in promotions. Promoting from within is encouraged. Lots of training and up skill opportunities.

Cons

Operationally this is the worst company I have ever worked for. There is a lot of duplicity of roles, but everything is very siloed so enterprise standards for getting things done does not exist. There have also been so many lay offs I over the past couple years without continuity plans that it is impossible to find owners or subject matter experts for certain products or data. I often spend days on end trying to track down someone who can give me access to a specific dataset.

Pros

Great people, smart people. With new CEO, maybe things will get back

Cons

Been a horrible last 3 years. Non-stop re-offs, new leadership that cut everyone and brought in new people who don’t know anything. No clear priorities, no leadership.
