Pros

Get to use fairly cutting edge technologies, especially lately with the heavy adoption of AI tools. Generally good culture where associates are collaborative and willing to assist each other.

Cons

Performance management calibrations where employees are compared to each other and ~10% are put on Performance Improvement Plans each year, and usually let go regardless of how they perform at that point. This is becoming a bigger issue as promotions have largely stalled, and this process becomes increasingly competitive.
