Pros

The ability to contribute in a meaningful way irregardless of your level or experience. Great culture and global community. A flatter hierarchical structure than similar companies, which gives you the ability to learn more about the company. A fantastic mix of experience, culture and diversity.

Cons

No real downsides, as there is a true life/work balance, as opposed to a work/balance. Supportive colleagues and managers.

Pros

WFH, good overall culture. Good people.

Cons

Leadership has been slow to stay current and modern in the workplace. The business is straddled with debt from a pervious investment company that had bought Getty and gutted it. Future is uncertain.
