Pros

Free giveaways Quicker than usual promotions

Cons

Communication from leadership is non existent. Upper management creates last minute tasks (which always seems to happen) and are always "priorities" that makes people work unreasonable hours. Constant turnover in employees (whether they quit or get fired) creates uncertainty in everyone. People high five you and congratulate you when you leave, if that tells you anything. There's no work life balance, since you only look like you care about your job if you stay after hours with your boss. You can work 12+ hrs a day, drink the Kool aid and get promoted in 2 years if you'd like to do that.

Pros

Benefits are excellent, most people at the peer level are great. Clear performance expectations. Decent cross functional communication

Cons

Company leadership very European and doesn't quite understand the American consumer even after being in the US so long. Unreasonable expectations are the norm. No upward mobility unless you are European or speak fluent German.
