Pros

The work is very flexible. Most people are trusted to do their jobs without micromanaging.

Cons

Very behind the times on technology and the industry is starting to notice. No longer a leader in data science and machine learning with any of the analysts. Many customers are seeking ways to move away from old, clunky technology. All the top talent is leaving. The talk of IPO is too late--no one will want to invest in a dying dinosaur of a company. Too much nepotism and too many sycophants feeding too much hubris and not enough people willing to try to right the ship.

Pros

Benefits: health coverage, on-site gym, childcare, healthcare center, and more. Work-life balance: predictable hours, flexibility for parents and a culture that doesn't expect you to grind 60-hour weeks.

Cons

Compensation lags the market, slow career advancement and promotions can take years. Change-resistant culture and new ideas move slowly. Leadership team manages up to just one person.
