Pros

Good healthcare benefits Flexible remote work policy

Cons

There have been atleast 3 major pivots in the past few years - the recent one being growth via contractors without making the contractors accountable for their output. The entire technology department is a mess. Power is concentrated amongst few people. If they like you, then you will be a success here , else its back to the shadows for you. And for them to like you, you have to drink the kool-aid and be agreeable. Growth within the company is based on relationships and the teams you work in - people are not measured on equal terms and there is rampant favoritism. Every new employee is like a new toy and becomes the flavor of the month until they are replaced by a newer employee. There is no hope for alternative viewpoints. Classic case of group-think but most of them do not even realize that. This company should be a hard pass for now but hopefully they change.

Pros

* Great business model at the foundation * Solid compensation program: Base salary + bonus * Sustained high profitability over the long term * Stable employement * Pension Plan

Cons

* Extremely hierarchical and regimented * Promotions based on favortism rather than true merit. Employees are precategorized and stigmatized on their ability for future career progression. * Extremely focused on metrics and internal objectives. This leads to box checking, cutting corners and bending rules to meet the numbers. * Extremely heavy workload. No work-life balance. * Management doesn't really incorporate employee feedback; they pretend to to check a box. * Quality of job suffers to keep up with quantity. Everything is becoming data driven and the data is often wrong. Enormous pressure to hit a button and accept at face value whatever the system spews out. * Our CEO builds fancy gold plated office buildings that aren't needed and pulled the plug on hybrid work to justify the investment in the real estate.
