Pros

Love the mission and what 500 stands for Great travel opportunities Lax expense management We're going to Phuket for our retreat this year

Cons

500 is a sinking ship that wastes too much money and may get taken down by its incompetent CFO and GC. Leadership is lacking and there is no opportunity for career advancement so the company cannot retain talent.
