Pros

I worked with some good people, but I also worked with some really, really bad people. No other pros at this company - none.

Cons

The company completely lacks humanity. Employees are machines meant to accomplish work for the company. There is no guidance from higher ups, there is no explanation for actions, and secrets are kept without any thought about company transparency. Regarding overall company functionality and logistics, they are the worst-organized company I have ever worked for. Need answers about payroll? HR? Need IT help? There are no systems in place. The annual review cycle is non-existent because they have no systems in place for that, either. I can't fully explain what a terrible experience I had here. VPs and SVPs do not manage, and when they do, watch out - they could be mysteriously fired without any explanation to the team. The CEO is only concerned with obtaining companies, not scaling their current operation or ensuring that departments function. As a result, many people are miserable which makes it miserable to work there. The only advice I can offer is stay away.

Pros

You meet pretty interesting people and form a bond with them.

Cons

The plan is to replace everyone with AI sooner rather than later as they have already done so in small bursts. The higher-ups praise the new tech in meetings even though they know it means more layoffs than have already happened. They lie and say that humans are still necessary but go on to introduce a new program that renders departments moot and then another round of mass layoffs happen "out of nowhere."
