Pros

Impressive benefits package, job flexibility, the ability to work in many aspects of the company

Cons

There have been many layoffs and they don't seem to be very targeted, more like "we need to drop X% of costs." It sometimes feels like the company is so focused on being diverse that not being a minority is a liability.
