Pros

- Free breakfast, lunch and snacks

Cons

- No flexibility around office attendance with a push to eventually return 5 days a week - Constant re-orgs and unexpected layoffs, not communicated well or entirely lied about - The company is driven entirely by upper management's 'feelings' and no data is ever shared to back this up - Road maps are often completely discarded when someone on the C-suite discovers a new buzzword - Nearly impossible to be promoted for a good job done well; performative actions are more important than skill - Employees are viewed as interchangeable cogs with no consideration given to domain knowledge or specialty

Pros

Good salary, thats about it

Cons

Toxic work culture, they want you to work from 6 am to 9pm. If you do not speak french or are not french you will feel like an outsider. Favoritism is big here, manager have their favorites and will feed them inbounds. Very hard to get approval to go to conferences, and there is no ROI, longer reps hold on to bigger name merchants for years even though they are not having any impact, and no one does anything about it.
