Pros

Great benefits Looks good on a resume

Cons

VERY low glass ceiling for people of color Very few opportunities for movement within the organization if you truly don't have anyone advocating for you behind the scenes (favoritism) Secretive about salary and pay bands Someone else said it best: they're a big corp cos-playing as a non-profit...and I agree.

Pros

Great coworkers to be around, great benefits, work-life balance was perfect before the middle management layoffs. Collaborating with teams is constant and helpful for the design process.

Cons

They cut the research team, relying on designs to take on that plus end-to-end products, which leaves to heavy work loads and late nights. Deadlines are rather quicker than usual since the reorg.
