Pros

Physical Activity Reimbursement Nice salad bar at US HQ Good people Employee award program

Cons

Most departments lack structured or comprehensive training Low pay Low bonus, if any For annual review each dept only allowed 2 people that exceed expectations (qualify for promotion) and should have 2 people that do not meet expectations (require performance improvement plan) To advance or make more money, you’re better off leaving the company and then coming back in the future.

Pros

Great pay initially, especially after negotiating. People are very smart and willing to meet for networking and learning opportunities. Flexibility and work life balance is by far the best perk - especially since many roles are fully remote.

Cons

Merit raises have been subpar the last 4 years and do not come close to keeping with inflation, consistently the company cites great EBITDA growth but that never is shown in bonuses nor merit raises despite receiving “exceeds expectations” ratings. Parental leave is a nominal. Very easy to get “lost in the sauce” of such a large company.
