Pros

Good Pay, nice people to work with, pretty good benefits

Cons

They hire too much, then layoff to much, then hire again and then layoff and the cycle goes on. Not good for people who made a change to work here then get laid off. Town halls make it sound like no one would be laid off, yet there was over 100+ people laid off in Oct 2023 - Feb 2024.
