Pros
PTO and health insurance are good. They also offer fairly generous resources for training, for corporate employees.
Cons
Stack ranking was used to divvy up the end of year bonuses, which is impossible since managers have no way of rating people who aren't on their direct teams. Watched most promotions go to friends and favorites of the existing leaders, so if you don't play politics well or suck up to the right boss, you have pretty much no chance for advancement. The learning and development team was the dumping/training ground for leaders being groomed for upper management (VP and above), so had to suffer through a new know-nothing in charge every 1.5 years. Low performers who really should have been terminated for cause lingered for years getting shuffled around like a bad joke. At the low-mid level (associate directors), most people managers did not know how to manage/lead people. The culture and communication style does not value direct input or feedback, which is part of the reason that problems fester for well beyond reason, without being corrected. Also, probably due to the size of the organization, there was massive lack of accountability and plenty of people that would answer questions simply "it's not my job" - even for jobs they held very recently. They've also instituted RTO policies limited to very specific cities, designed to work as quiet layoffs, forcing people to relocate at their own expense or leave the company. This is after decades of successfully running remote and distributed teams (well before COVID). So instead of retaining talent, they're retaining the people who live in driving distance of the offices. Serious lack of diversity despite half-hearted words about DEI that one suspects are only for the sake of public image.
