Pros
The company has a legendary history, and the core values of the founders still linger. The quality of the people is what makes working here so worthwhile. Folks here value teamwork and try to work through issues.
Cons
Jobs are being cut in the US and moved overseas. This is not new, but the opportunities in to advance a career are few. The opportunity to have work/life balance is lost, and compensation is mediocre.

Hi and thank you for the review! I'm happy to see that you appreciate our values and employees. We do have fantastic colleagues! To your point about career advancement, I'm sorry to hear that you don't think there are opportunities, and do not think this is the experience for the majority of our employees. We are striving to offer opportunities for growth and advancement to our best employees, and this will continue to be one of our priorities. ~ Madalina Antohe, Employer branding and digital media lead

Cons
Goals change so frequently sometimes it felt as though all the hard work was for nothing.
Competitive environment so you need to show your value outside of your role to get assistance and build a brand/ name for yourself.
Internal opportunities "require" referrals and building rapport with that team. Otherwise your application is ignored.
Salary raises are not great so negotiate your incoming salary well.
Your direct manager shapes your experience, not a con necessarily. Poor managers or shift in management can impact your experience heavily.
