Pros

As the industry leader, there is no lack of resources and tech tools. Intrapreneurial work environment and work from home flexibility. Great place to learn and get your feet wet. Active and engaged affinity groups Work with smart, connected people (colleagues) Concierge services available (pre-covid) at work

Cons

Lack of advancement and promotion opportunity unless nepotism or cronyism is involved, Women, Black/Brown folks bring your armor because the micro-aggressions will be flying and HR isn’t equipped. Get the experience/ relationships you need then exit especially if you’re not being appreciated. So much hierarchy to get something approved within management Data Transparency within HR is tough Out of pocket benefits costs need to be addressed given the size of the company Short sighted outlook on developing people Merit increase is below market and outside of producer and senior executives, salaries need to be 20%+ higher.

Pros

Average pay and benefits. Great focus on diversity as long as you're Indian.

Cons

Employees packed onto floors with 5 foot desks end to end, running the length of the floor, in the name of collaboration. Environment is noisy and distracting. Work from home days cancelled. Many H1B workers, over half of workforce flooded in with new CIO. Diwali celebration much larger than Christmas "lunch". Depressing place to work right now, resignations are now occurring on a regular basis where as in the past was a rare event.
