Pros

Some people are excellent. However, this is a company that fired it's smartest teams to keep the PowerPoint makers.

Cons

This company has absolutely no strategy. The generative AI focus they have in marketing is one big lie. They do not have any. If you're a startup and they buy you, I'm sorry: they'll make sure you fail and fire your smartest people. The culture is siloed and toxic. People skills are hardly existent. Avoid unless you're desperate.
