Pros

Really great people to work with - very smart. Company tries hard to make it a great place to work. Diversity and inclusion are the norm - this is wonderful!

Cons

Took a page out of the GE playbook to rank employees against each other and cut the bottom 10% every few years. While this isn't formally declared, it is the reality. This regular "calibration" process is unpleasant at best, and inhumane at worst. It is sad to see decent people fall victim to a soul-less corporate practice. Outside of calibration time, it is a fun place to work. During calibration times (twice/year), you are reminded that you are really just a number after all.
