Vantaggi

The brand name looks good on a resume, and compensation can be competitive depending on your role. Some coworkers are smart and genuinely try to do good work.

Svantaggi

Culture is chaotic and poorly managed. Leadership talks a big game about transparency and work-life balance, but the reality is constant fire drills, unclear priorities, and shifting expectations. Decisions are made last-minute, often without input from the people actually doing the work, and then leadership acts surprised when things go sideways. There’s a lot of politics and favoritism, with promotions and recognition feeling inconsistent and opaque. Burnout is common, but instead of addressing root causes, it’s brushed off as “part of the grind.” Processes change constantly, documentation is lacking, and accountability almost always rolls downhill. Work-life balance is more marketing than reality. Long hours are normalized, especially around launches, and “flexibility” tends to disappear when deadlines get tight.

Vantaggi

The pros about this place is that if you want a quiet area to work when you do work there out of 3 days out of the week that they have you work there. At least that's what it was when I worked there I don't know if they've changed it. Then you work 2 days at home. It's very quiet. Most the time there is nobody there. They will train you and help you but you will eventually have to be able to do it on your own.

Svantaggi

If you switch over to departments don't depend on the company keeping you. If you mess up. The company was literally going through a buyout with the lottery company when I was working there and everything was crashing. So I got let go because there were a lot of errors and the system that they upgraded to was worse than the one that we worked on. So basically if anything happens with the systems just make sure that you know what you're doing and that you catch up on everything.
