Pros

- Great facilities - Brewed coffee all day - WFH can be negotiated - Learning opportunities - Compensation is above average and their long term benefits are rewarding

Cons

- Their career leveling system is confusing - Difficult to advance on the career ladder - They assign some of their managers to manage teams overseas while working from their home countries, leaving the team without direct oversight. For a company that's trying to present itself as a flat organization, this is fine; until you have this co-worker that wants to act as the manager and micromanage everyone around. - Ubiquitous office politics - Management barely cares about your struggles and almost everyone are only after themselves.

Pros

Paycheck is great, people to work with are generally very intelligent, positive and professional. Many positions are work from home or at least hybrid. Continuous learning is encouraged. Since the company is technically British, it is very inclusive and has several networks to ensure inclusion (although some such as the menopause support group are UK based which isn't surprising as the US doesn't typically care about such things though they should).

Cons

The workload is often insane to put it mildly. You are expected to sort of "do everything". When you are encouraged to speak up if you have too much work, they pretty much tell you "well you just have to figure out how to get it done because we have to give you more work". There is blatant favoritism. Those who are liked are praised for giving detailed answers on calls and granted a month off of PTO while those not as well liked get grilled when they ask for one day off and are told "not to overthink" when they try to provide detailed answers.
