Pros

Pays a living wage for your location.

Cons

The top leadership at the company (almost all white cis-het men) have repeatedly prioritized their own comfort, even in very low-stakes situations. When asked for a transparent explanation, the responses are incoherent claims of objectivity, when there is empirical evidence that the decisions were not even well-researched. When one white male leader makes a mistake, the white male CEO backs them, and publicly admonishes employees for calling out the biased behavior. All biased decisions are doubled-down upon. Previous wins for vulnerable employees are constantly "re-evaluated." The leaders handing down decisions is called "discussion," even though anyone who responds to their declarations is routinely ignored. If you are not a white cis-het man, look elsewhere.
