Pros

You learn a lot and get equipped for future opportunities externally.

Cons

Its a political minefield, too many GMs, Lvl 8 and 10, all about themselves, actually, they are so self obsessed they can't be customer obsessed.

Pros

- Strong place to be early in your career as it provides valuable training and the brand recognition can create strong future opportunities. - Is great if you’re interested in what you’re doing/selling

Cons

- 5 days in office is not great for work/life balance - If your manager doesn’t like you, good luck! - 401k match is lower than most companies - Base salary compensation is weak compared to other big tech - Leveling/career progression is near impossible due to reorgs leading to a promotion “freeze” - Role can evolve over time in ways that may not align with original job expectations
