Pros

- Good work/life balance - Nice team members

Cons

- Leadership is disconnected from reality and doesn't understand day-to-day realities of marketing efforts - Pushed to move quickly rather than doing things the right way to ensure long-term success - Leaders acting in fear and take actions to cover their own backs - Very political and everyone looking to take credit (Example: Digital leadership made company-wide announcement that a large project was completed when those working on it know it's only 50% of the way done)

Pros

Smart, talented, and supportive colleagues. Interesting products and the opportunity to work on technology that impacts many customers. Good work-life balance in most teams. Collaborative culture with opportunities to learn from experienced peers. Strong brand recognition and valuable experience for your resume

Cons

Cons Recognition is lacking, especially for individual contributors. Strong performance and consistent delivery do not necessarily translate into career advancement, promotions, or meaningful salary increases. Growth opportunities appear limited for ICs, while management roles seem to receive a greater share of advancement and compensation opportunities. After several years, many individual contributors may find themselves reaching a career plateau with few clear paths for progression. If career growth, promotion opportunities, and compensation advancement are important priorities, it may be worth evaluating other opportunities once you’ve gained experience here
