Pros
-Pay -Growth opportunities (if they like you and you don't mind working outside of your functional area of expertise) -Brand reputation
Cons
Discover has a toxic culture where harassment and verbal abuse are accepted and perpetrators are celebrated and promoted. Things have only gotten worse and gone downhill since going remote. The company does nothing to build morale or address burnout. People are afraid to speak up and report incidents to HR. There's a feeling of fear and intimidation to avoid retaliation. Leadership makes decisions based on their own self interests and success and growth opportunities depend on whether they like you. Managers are inexperienced and there is no curriculum or training to help them improve. Challenging the status quo is punished. I was publicly critiqued and belittled by managers and executives. Tenure is king and external experience is ignored. It's a place that's always looking to place blame and manipulates results to avoid failure. They don't learn from their mistakes - they just refuse to acknowledge them. There is no consideration of where you want to go in your career - they put you in positions based on what they need and most of the work has become operational. The company is currently losing many of their top performers and leadership isn't doing anything.
