Business Outlook

Pros

great benefits- 6 month parental leave, top notch medical /dental & vision with no premiums for the whole family, 3-5 weeks of vacation (based on tenure), free snacks and beverages in every office good internal/external help system- any minor workplace issues & questions get resolved really fast, sometimes within minutes to few hours. example: wonky workchair or keyboard can be replaced within less than an hour, computer/mic/camera issues get resolved in minutes Open floor plans and easy access to teams and people across all divisions True diversity- ppl from all walks of life and backgrounds and with different skillsets and levels of education which brings ranges of perspectives

Cons

archaic tech infrastructure. everything has to be build on top of the code from 1980 and multiple mismatched apps bundled together. to derived simple consensus sometimes takes several minutes and 4-5 different apps/screens. sales has become less about selling and more about making numbers look good, heavily window dressing and internal political game since no one gets commissions which then encourages this types of behaviors.
