Pros

Can’t think of any pros

Cons

Due to capacity, No parking is available for associates. We have to park on grass patches throughout the campus, and spend 20-30 mins just finding the spot. On certain days, cafe runs out of food. And the worst part is finding a desk. It’s impossible to find a place close to your team mates. Your team members will be on different floors and buildings. But you still have to come in to office everyday, and live through this hell. We come in to office to do zoom meetings because can’t sit next to team mates due to capacity issues. Their campuses are cramped for space. More like a bustling fish market in an Asian capital city. Managers threaten to cancel bonuses and promotions if we don’t accept this situation. Managers are happy with this as well. Because they want to downsize the company, and every manager is looking for an excuse to fire people. They lure people in with bonuses but use bonus as a blackmailing tool. If you don’t do this, we will take this percent off bonus. If you don’t do that, we will take this percent off bonus.

Pros

Benefits including profit sharing and bonuses are great. The breadth of this company provides a great opportunity to try out different career paths or boost your current one.

Cons

In my current role, I am working overtime more often than I'd like with recognition that seems to only go so far until it sizzles out. That may be tied to the size of the company itself, where promotions work in a "trickle down" manner.
