Pros

- Benefits - Growing DEI programming - Learning and development opportunities - Products that make a real difference. There is negative press around the public sector solution, but they get it wrong or take things out of context for the most part.

Cons

- COO and CEO severely lack empathy and any form of emotional intelligence. - The DEI team and chief people officer are great, but there are glaring pockets of racism and misogyny across the company that are consciously overlooked for the sake of sales. The first bullet prevents real action on this one.
