Pros

Compensation is good, and the company has a lot of great values on paper. Unfortunately, very little follow through on that

Cons

I worked as a senior business analyst and have to say I was tremendously disappointment with the development opportunities, culture, and overall experience. If you are looking into the analytics department, ask about their turnover. If they are honest, it's above 30% because they are incapable of developing talent and provide a horrible work life balance

Pros

Compensation, state of the art tools, cafeteria food. Getting to the 20 word minimum for this posting has proven difficult. There is no more to say.

Cons

What you have to give up in return for compensation. Extraordinary performance is considered the norm and a bell curve is pushed, regardless of performance. Interaction is not based on doing the right thing, it is based on whether that person will give you good 360 feedback. Lip service is paid to culture and values.
