Pros

-Some very friendly people -Fun environment

Cons

-Unsupportive culture - was assigned to a project where budget was running out and the original project plan stated the project would require getting additional funding part way through to complete the project. I asked for additional funding with months of lead time and was told first to use all of the project budget before asking for more funding. Then after the budget was near zero when I followed up asking for more funding was asked why I had let my budget run out. I was scrutinized and questioned as though I didn't understand project management. -Tumultuous politics - Toxic politics between project execution team and PMO. Project execution team was messing up elements of the project. By merely having to point this out to everyone I was questioned and attacked by the execution team and my management. I couldn't ensure the project executed successfully nor get support reporting the issues that needed to be changed. -More politics - depending on the area of the company I worked with as my project crossed over many, some teams I had to coordinate with were passive aggressive and ultimately it turned out dishonest about elements of the project I'd then have to find out and become the messenger who got shot for doing so.

Pros

Some benefits are good- decent health insurance

Cons

Pay is low, even within the same industry it’s one of the lowest. Growth opportunities are minimal, you need to have a boss that will advocate for you. Seems like this company only cares about their own reputation instead of their employees’ well being

Pros

Great community if individuals working their hardest and bringing their best. Great pay and benefits.

Cons

The Product Org has a management problem that the higher ups continually ignore. Many people have left due to one specific manager and they continue to list people in lieu of removing him.
