Pros

Lots of room to take on roles because they've laid everyone off! Hours are flexible, as in you'll be extending work into evenings and weekends

Cons

They don't provide you a budget for therapy you'll need from being abused as an employee. Merger was also handled terribly-- They are cutting costs to a point where teams cannot operate. Also, if you do well and expand your duties, don't hope for a promotion or raise because they'll take the duties away from you so you're back to a position where you can't ask for a raise. No performance reviews, and then no raise because there are no records of performance reviews. Politics, politics, politics.

Pros

Culture, perks, benefits, events, great folks

Cons

This department is ridiculous and run by crazy people. Only a few faves are promoted, but they'll step on your neck for it and everyone else will get thrown under the bus. Expect a layoff so they can keep the few idiots that are their friends. Once you get in, you're locked in where you are - NO MOVEMENT. And worst of all, the pay is horrible.
