Great flexibility, culture, and benefits

The company is very politically charged and you dont always agree

Great benefits, great location. The roots of the company are still there on paper, but have not survived the culture change over the last 4 years.

The company has lost its moral compass. In the last 4 years half of its employees have quit or been fired. Constant "restructuring" means constant layoffs, and an air of abject fear. Senior leadership is simply awful. They hire style over substance -- people who are good at sitting in meetings all day talking about work, but not actually doing work (that gets outsourced to someone else). Some in leadership are nearly clown-like -- complete buffoons -- and seem to want to prove this by wearing purple clothing to match purple pens, notebooks, etc. Constantly-distracted-by-the-latest-shiny-object personalities mean no real marketing gets done, just whatever strokes their enormous egos, just like all the boot-licking yes-men they surround themselves with. No career opportunities -- once you make a certain amount, they will replace you with someone who is cheaper. Terrible ageism going on here.
