Pros

Flexible working hours, good benefits

Cons

not enough developers doing the actual work, way too many "managers" who spend their days in meetings talking about the same topics over and over again. complete lack of strategic direction and very uninspiring and disengaged bosses who play the blame game and only talk to a few people. those making the decisions are in survival mode and quite insecure so the support you receive is non existent. what is worse, is that actually close to nothing gets done, and the people who care leave out of frustration. it's not a safe place for proactivity.

Pros

Competitive pay and benefits, decent work/life balance (depends on your role), established and well regarded products.

Cons

They hire excellent people on the ground, but DEI hires in C-suite managmeent are bad. Toxic, narcissistic "leaders" are promoted based on gender instead of aptitude, and cancerous individuals are slow to be removed because of the emphasis on DEI. Yara used to be and could be a great place to work again, but they need to get rid of the problem people to get there.
