Pros

Some really good street smart people Entrepreneurial to some extent Pays well at the level I was

Cons

Toxic environment and they don't care for employees. I was part of the senior management club and then I ran into some serious health crisis and issues. I survived and then came back from long health leave (3 months) and when divisional HRBP saw me for the first time she made a very insensitive remark "Oh you are back!! We are were not expecting you to come back". 2 weeks down the line they made me redundant. Now I was still coping with health issues (getting better but on Chemo) and then lost my health insurance through work and also didn't have a job (single earner in the family). I had reasonable grounds to take you to court but I decided againt it I had reasonable grounds to take these guys to to court but I decided against it as I didn't want the negativity in my life. By god's grace, I am doing well now and doing much better in life from all aspects but this company is disgusting. Absolutely hate this company and some of the people involved during my last 6 months at this company.
