      Pros

      Great people. Opportunity to take initiative and own work. Good place to learn as you can become very involved in the growth of the site and can drive things if you step up.

      Cons

      Lack of direction from upper management. Politics between teams/sites holds back projects. Busy work can make an appearance at times. People end up doing roles they shouldn't be doing which just pulls them away from what they were hired to do. Grad program is poor and internal career development/promotions are not very transparent.
