Pros

Free barista bar coffee in office

Cons

No minimum salary increase to account for inflation. No salary increases in over 3 years for some team members, leadership always says “wait until the next cycle, you’ll be prioritized”. Then 6 months later: “sorry no raise possible it’s out of our hands, not based on performance though”. They also pay men more ($5k more for the man in a prior position to my co-worker, who took it over for him after he was laid off, she had 2 extra years experience at the company than him and still gets paid less). HR and leadership here is awful.

Pros

The team at the "lower echelon" are super - talented, driven, fun,,,,, BUUUUUT>....

Cons

The leadership is very clique-y, have their favourites (and are not afraid to show it), wildly difficult to connect with in any way, and surround themselves with "yes men" and their "privelege". Disengenuous climbers who will step on just about anyone to get what/where they want. Waited a LONG time to post this, out of fear of some kind of retribution.
