Pros

There are high performing teams throughout the organization made up of dedicated, experienced, passionate people.

Cons

Lacks an articulable vision, lacks servant leadership, lacks culture. Lacks diversity in executive positions despite being the biggest player in an industry powered by diversity - this is, frankly, inexcusable. Acquisition of SDL has been poorly planned, executed and communicated; integration complexities have been left to employees to identify and solve, as if risk assessments were never done. Comp plans have been unreasonably delayed. All signs point to an organization that is not culturally or strategically positioned to lead this industry, and whose leaders don’t seem to think this is a problem.

Pros

Decent paying side job, flexible hours

Cons

Absolute nightmare to get paid. You WILL have to complain in order to get paid, and you will most likely have to complain more than once in order to get the answer you need. I still haven't been paid for work done months ago! Everyone that reads this with a similar issue needs to do what I did and bring it to the attention of the state labor boards.
