Pros

Passionate and smart people. Open communication culture. Cool work environment with flexibility in work presence/schedule, as long as the job gets done.

Cons

Tight on resources. Too small to afford best in class systems by itself - the larger parent company got to make decisions on many of the corporate work tools and sometimes overkill for the size of the business.

Pros

I enjoy working with smart and interesting people around the globe. The company has good benefits and treats its employees fairly. I've had many opportunities for different jobs and advancement opportunities.

Cons

There is still a silo mentality between the divisions. The executive leadership seems ego-driven rather than business-focused. There are many people in middle and senior leadership positions who should not be there. The execs are loathe to make the hard decisions they need to make.

Pros

An amazing group of really nice really talented smart people. The office is great, the benefits are good and for the most part the hours are what you want them to be.

Cons

Unnecessary internal competition rather than cooperation on similar projects. No clear path for advancement, so you have to make your own, which thankfully is possible.
