Pros

Great perks-- beautiful former office, phone booths, wednesday lunches. Colleagues were really great and made lasting friendships. Employee resource groups are active and engaging. Excellent for diversity.

Cons

Job description changed between hiring me and my start date, with no notice to myself. Salary below market, bad health insurance, understaffed teams taking on overwhelming amounts of work, expected to be on-call 24/7. Most of my colleagues and I worked 7am - 9pm, then on-call outside those hours. Had a manager that would never respond before noon or after 4. Extremely inconsistent management. I was overworked and never able to take a sick day, even with a broken joint I needed to tend to. No ability to take appointments even with paperwork for a legal disability. Spoke with HR multiple times and no change to accommodate me.
