Pluspunten

-Remote work, although they're trying to tighten on that -Interesting though wrong problems

Minpunten

-SAFE insights team is immature with new, inexperienced management that lacks a technical background -Using contractors that they hire, fire, and wait on to renew contracts creates a lack of stability and lack of ownership among full time, who try to protect their positions -Top down decisions not backed by data and without the ability to challenge the status quo creates interesting though wrong problems that are ultimately a waste of time for DS -Losing job creates fear culture through job cuts and firing contractors -Lack of data science infrastructure for such a large company -Bottom managers busy fiddling around with Claude to try to "unlock potential" and doing useless HR organization, rather than leading and reviewing current work -Lack of mathematical edge among some analysts
