Pros

- Decent work/life balance depending on team - Mission sounds meaningful in theory - Severance packages are reasonable

Cons

- Significant downsizing in 2025 - Repeated strategic pivots over the past few years - Ongoing restructures and leadership churn contribute to instability, stress, and burnout - Digital transformation efforts are led by leaders lacking product or digital expertise - Executive leadership remains traditional and disconnected from the realities of modern digital practices - Politics and poor leadership behaviors are tolerated, impacting culture and morale - Employees often feel treated as interchangeable resources rather than long-term contributors
