Pros

Some fun perks like discounts on offroad/outdoor gear. young workplace.

Cons

Balance of Power and workload is bad. some departments take all the blame but have no resources or power. No accountability from department to department. Leadership is extremely detached from the reality of what is happening day to day. CEO is more interested in aquiring new revenue streams than operating a solid business.

Pros

Good brand with cool products, can offer some cool experiences on the job if you're on big projects in the right department. The people there can be pretty fun, too. It's a laid back culture.

Cons

Management would often fight over project ownership or influence. It caused some pretty heavy bottlenecking and terrible direction. A lot of the work became unnecessarily frustrating for long periods of time.
