Pros

Incredibly smart and kind colleagues, lots of perks (especially for NYCers).

Cons

As Mike steps back the bureaucracy is gradually eating away at everything that made this company special. I used to feel valued and empowered to make a difference - in the end, I was just a cog. I get the RTO policy, and that’s 100% the company’s right, but it would have been nice if someone in HR or management actually gave a fig when I had to give up a job and team I loved to take care of my family. No ‘thanks for a decade of hard work’, no ‘sorry it turned out this way’, no ‘good luck with your family issues’ - virtually no official communication at all, not even an exit interview. If it weren’t for my immediate supervisors I would have felt like so much garbage dumped at the curb. So incredibly disappointing from a place I once cared about so deeply.

Not really cons, culture is great.

Pros

Great Office, Free Snacks and plenty of social events

Cons

Be prepared for a heavily politicised culture — it's pervasive and affects day-to-day working life significantly. The organisation suffers from clear in-group favouritism at the leadership level, where certain groups are visibly preferred for opportunities, recognition, and advancement. This creates an uneven playing field and quietly damages morale for those outside those circles. Leadership collaboration leaves a lot to be desired. In four years, I didn't experience a single structured team-building or bonding initiative — a telling sign of how little investment goes into people and team cohesion. Perhaps most concerning is the approach to compliance. Raising legitimate concerns or challenging existing practices is met with significant resistance from senior stakeholders, rather than genuine engagement. A culture where pushback replaces accountability is one worth approaching with caution.
