Business Outlook

Pros

Exciting products, with opportunity to collaborate with thoughtful teammates and peers. Compensation and benefits are relatively higher than other companies in same sector. Coworkers are often a mix of focused expertise and kindness.

Cons

Career growth is challenging - promotions are hard to achieve and up-leveling opportunities have been almost non-existent since 2023. Coworkers are genuinely nice people, but due to propensity of the company to hire people for their depth of knowledge in a specific area, individual breadth of abilities is limited subsequently surfacing limitation with common sense. This creates the need for a great deal of hand holding.
